PS1097 is a broad-spectrum antiviral inhibitor with a BVDV RdRp IC50 of 0.64 μM. PS1097 selectively reduces RTN3 protein levels, causes partial RTN3 mRNA reduction, and leaves other endoplasmic reticulum-resident proteins unaffected. PS1097 inhibits replication of Zika virus and multiple viruses that use the endoplasmic reticulum as a replication hub. PS1097 inhibits BVDV RdRp enzymatic activity and exerts activity against Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus. PS1097 can be used for the research of zika virus infection, usutu virus infection, west nile virus infection, COVID-19, coxsackie b virus 5 infection, chikungunya virus infection, vaccinia virus infection.
