Exploring the Potential of Bacillus Species Secondary Metabolites as SARS-CoV-2 Protease Inhibitors [PDF]

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
Virus has the ability to cause health problems and even death in humans. Therefore, this review aims to assess the potential of metabolites derived from Bacillus species as viral protease inhibitors, specifically targeting Mpro/3CLpro and PLpro, in SARS ...

Identification of semicarbazones, thiosemicarbazones and triazine nitriles as inhibitors of Leishmania mexicana cysteine protease CPB [PDF]

, 2013
Cysteine proteases of the papain superfamily are present in nearly all eukaryotes. They play pivotal roles in the biology of parasites and inhibition of cysteine proteases is emerging as an important strategy to combat parasitic diseases such as sleeping

Lipopeptides as dimerization inhibitors of HIV-1 protease [PDF]

, 1999
In AIDS therapy, attempts have been made to inhibit the virus-encoded enzymes, e.g, HIV-1 protease, using active site-directed inhibitors. This approach is questionable, however, due to virus mutations and the high toxicity of the drugs, An alternative ...

Protease mediated maturation of HIV: Inhibitors of protease and the maturation process [PDF]

, 2012
Protease-mediated maturation of HIV-1 virus particles is essential for virus infectivity. Maturation occurs concomitant with immature virus particle release and is mediated by the viral protease (PR), which sequentially cleaves the Gag and Gag-Pol ...

Potential COVID-19 Protease Inhibitors: Repurposing FDAapproved Drugs [PDF]

, 2020
Using as a template the crystal structure of COVID-19 protease, we developed a pharmacophore of functional centers of the protease inhibitor-binding pocket. Then we conducted data mining of the conformational database of FDA-approved drugs.

HIV-1 protease inhibitor mutations affect the development of HIV-1 resistance to the maturation inhibitor bevirimat

Retrovirology, 2011
Background Maturation inhibitors are an experimental class of antiretrovirals that inhibit Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) particle maturation, the structural rearrangement required to form infectious virus particles.

High failure rates of protease inhibitor-based antiretroviral treatment in rural Tanzania - A prospective cohort study.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BACKGROUND:Poor adherence to antiretroviral drugs and viral resistance are the main drivers of treatment failure in HIV-infected patients. In sub-Saharan Africa, avoidance of treatment failure on second-line protease inhibitor therapy is critical as ...

Virtual screening and molecular dynamics simulation study of plant protease inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 envelope protein

Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2022
Due to the outbreak of a new strain of pandemic coronavirus, there is a huge loss of economy and health. In 2021, some vaccines are recommended as emergency licensed vaccines to protect against the virus, and efforts are continuously ongoing to evaluate ...
