Glycoprotein B is a peptide with the sequence H2N-Ser-Ser-Ile-Glu-Phe-Ala-Arg-Leu-OH, MW= 922.04. glycoprotein B is a viral glycoprotein that is involved in the viral cell entry of Herpes simplex virus. The herpesvirus glycoprotein B is the most highly c
The diazomethyl ketone Z-LVG-CHN2 mimics part of the human cysteine proteinase-binding center, has been shown to be an irreversible inhibitor of this proteinase. The compound was also tested for antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV) and found to block the HSV replication. Irreversible inhibitor of streptopain.
SCH-42354 is a potent, orally active inhibitor of neutral endopeptidase (NEP), serving as the active form of the prodrug SCH-42495. By inhibiting NEP hydrolysis, SCH-42354 enhances the activity of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and prevents the hydrolysis of leu-enkephalin and ANF with IC50 values of 8.3 nM and 10.0 nM, respectively. Furthermore, SCH-42354 exhibits antihypertensive activity [1] [2].
