Biological Activity

[Description]:

Urumin has antiviral activity against the human influenza A virus. Urumin inhibits the growth of PR8 influenza virus (IC50: 3.8 μM). Urumin targets the conserved stalk of H1 hemagglutini, and is effective at neutralizing drug-resistant H1 influenza viruses. Urumin protects naive mice from lethal influenza infection[1].
