Synonyms: ML-364
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: ML364 inhibits the deubquitinating activity of ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 2 (USP2) [2]. It has been used to explore the potential of inhibiting ACE2 deubquitination as an anti-coronavirus strategy [1]. ML364 also inhibits ACE2 deubiquitination by SARS-CoV-2 PLpro (this action of PLpro increases ACE2 abundance and potential for host cell infection).
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
