IC50: 30 nM (SARS-CoV 3CLpro)[1]
GRL-0496 targets the 3C-like protease (3CLpro), also known as Mpro, of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. 3CLpro is a cysteine protease essential for viral replication, as it cleaves the viral polyprotein into functional proteins. By inhibiting 3CLpro, GRL-0496 blocks viral replication. The compound also inhibits MERS-CoV 3CLpro activity. Structurally, it is a chloropyridyl ester derivative with the molecular formula C₁₄H₉ClN₂O₂ and a molecular weight of 272.7 g/mol. |

| ln Vitro |
GRL-0496 exhibits the highest antiviral activity against SARS-CoV, with an EC EC50 of 6.9 μM[1].
In vitro, GRL-0496 demonstrates potent inhibition of SARS-CoV 3CLpro with an IC50 of 30 nM. It shows antiviral efficacy against SARS-CoV with an EC50 of 6.9 μM. The compound also inhibits MERS-CoV 3CLpro activity with an EC50 of approximately 12.5 μM. In enzyme inhibition and antiviral assays, the compound maintains consistent potency. These in vitro activities support its use as a lead compound for therapeutic development against coronaviruses. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo data for GRL-0496 is limited in publicly available sources. As a potent 3CLpro inhibitor with in vitro antiviral activity, the compound is expected to have potential applications in animal models of coronavirus infection. By inhibiting viral protease activity, it could reduce viral replication and disease severity. However, specific published in vivo efficacy studies are not widely reported for this compound. GRL-0496 is primarily used as a research tool for studying coronavirus protease biology.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro 3CLpro inhibition assay for GRL-0496 uses recombinant 3CLpro enzyme and a fluorogenic peptide substrate that mimics the viral polyprotein cleavage site. Enzyme activity is measured by monitoring the increase in fluorescence upon substrate cleavage. Varying concentrations of the compound are incubated with the enzyme, and IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Antiviral assays are performed in cell lines infected with SARS-CoV or MERS-CoV, with EC50 values determined by measuring viral replication or cytopathic effect.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular antiviral assays for GRL-0496 are conducted in cell lines susceptible to SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-2 infection, such as Vero E6 cells. Cells are infected with the virus in the presence of varying concentrations of the compound. Viral replication is measured by quantifying viral RNA, plaque formation, or cytopathic effect. EC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Cell viability is assessed to confirm that antiviral activity is not due to cytotoxicity. The compound's effects on viral protease activity in cells are confirmed by Western blotting for viral polyprotein processing.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies for GRL-0496 would typically involve animal models of SARS-CoV or MERS-CoV infection, such as mice or hamsters. The compound would be administered via various routes at doses determined by pharmacokinetic studies. Efficacy would be assessed by measuring viral loads in tissues, clinical signs of disease, and survival rates. However, specific published in vivo protocols for GRL-0496 are not available in the current literature. The compound is currently used as a research tool.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for GRL-0496 is not extensively reported in publicly available sources. The compound has a molecular weight of 272.69 g/mol and is soluble in DMSO. As a small molecule protease inhibitor, it is expected to have moderate bioavailability. Detailed PK parameters such as half-life, clearance, and volume of distribution are not available in the current literature for this research compound. The compound is typically stored at -20°C for long-term stability.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for GRL-0496 is limited in publicly available sources. As with all research compounds, GRL-0496 is intended for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications. Standard in vitro cytotoxicity assays and in vivo tolerability studies would be required for a complete toxicity assessment. No specific toxicity data has been reported for this compound in the available literature.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
