| Bioactivity | Nirmatrelvir (PF-07321332) is a potent and orally active SARS-CoV 3C-like protease (3CLPRO) inhibitor. Nirmatrelvir (PF-07321332) targets to the SARS-CoV-2 virus and can be used for COVID-19 research[1]. | |||||||||
| Target | IC50: 3CLPRO | |||||||||
| Invitro | 3CLPRO is responsible for cleaving polyproteins 1a and 1ab of SARS-CoV-2.1. Without the activity of the SARS-CoV-2 3CLPRO, nonstructural proteins (including proteases) cannot be released to perform their functions, inhibiting viral replication[1]. | |||||||||
