ASF-006 sodium
ASF-006 sodium, a tetrapodal tryptophan derivative, is a potent viral invasion inhibitor. ASF-006 sodium shows potent antiviral activity against different SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variants but not against the ancestral SARS-CoV.2 strain (Wuhan-Hu-1). ASF-006 sodium competitively inhibits receptor-binding domain (RBD)-ACE2 binding via an allosteric mechanism. ASF-006 sodium inhibits Omicron BA.1, Omicron XBB.1.5, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and Ebola virus infection with IC50s of 0.02 μM, 0.3 μM, 1.52 μM and 0.2 μM, respectively. ASF-006 sodium inhibits cell entry of both HIV and enterovirus A71[1].

Biological Activity
ASF-006 sodium (20 μM) shows strong inhibition of infection by VSV pseudotyped, displaying Omicron BA.2 or BA.4/5 subvariants on its surface in the absence of significant toxicity to cells[1].
ASF-006 sodium against different SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variants but also highlight its limited activity against more ancestral strains (Wuhan-Hu-1) or distant coronaviruses (SARS-CoV)[1].
ASF-006 sodium shows strong antiviral activity against RSV-A, with IC50 values ranging between 0.05 and 0.2 μM when infecting A549, HEp-2, or Vero cells[1].
ASF-006 sodium shows no antiviral activity against VSV (Rhabdoviridae), Nipah virus, or Sindbis virus[1].
ASF-006 sodium interacts with the S protein, interfering with binding to its cellular receptor ACE2[1].
ASF-006 sodium binds to RBDBA.1 and SBA.1 proteins with Kd values of ∼60 μM and 5 μM, respectively[1].
