Baculovirus gp64 Inhibitors

Common Baculovirus gp64 Inhibitors include, but are not limited to Arbidol Hydrochloride CAS 131707-23-8, Hydroxylamine solution CAS 7803-49-8, (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate CAS 989-51-5, n-Octyl-β-D-glucopyranoside CAS 29836-26-8 and Methyl β-D-glucopyranoside CAS 709-50-2.

Baculovirus gp64 inhibitors constitute a specific category of compounds designed to interact with and modulate the activity of the baculovirus envelope glycoprotein gp64. This glycoprotein plays a crucial role in the entry of baculoviruses into host cells by facilitating membrane fusion during viral attachment and uptake. By binding to cellular receptors and initiating fusion, gp64 enables the viral genome to enter the host cell, subsequently leading to viral replication and propagation.

Inhibitors tailored for baculovirus gp64 are meticulously designed to disrupt its interaction with host cell receptors and interfere with the fusion process. This interaction holds the ability to hinder the viral entry and subsequent infection cycle. The study of gp64 inhibitors provides insights into the viral entry mechanisms of baculoviruses and the host-virus interactions that facilitate infection. Furthermore, these inhibitors offer a means to investigate the fundamental processes of viral attachment, fusion, and entry, enhancing our understanding of the molecular events that drive viral infections.
