Hepatitis Virus C NS3 Protease Inhibitor 2 is a peptide inhibitor derived from a product that targets the NS3 protease of the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Its inhibitory activity against the NS3 protease is characterized by a Ki value of 41 nM.
BI-1230 is a potent inhibitor of HCV NS3 protease, exhibiting efficacy in the low nanomolar range, and notably suppresses viral replication. This compound demonstrates high selectivity, distinguishing effectively between other serine/cysteine proteases. Additionally, BI-1230 exhibits favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) properties[1].
