Abstract
Endoproteolytic cleavage of glycoprotein B (gB) of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is inhibited by palmitoylated peptidyl-chloromethyl ketone (palFAKR-CEK) at concentrations above 30 microM. Inhibitor treatment of HCMV-infected human fibroblasts neither interfered with exposure of gB on the plasma membrane, detected by surface membrane immunostaining, nor reduced production of intracellular infectious viral progeny. Release of infectious virus, on the other hand, was impaired.Entities:
