Letermovir (GMP) is the GMP grade of Letermovir (HY-15233). GMP small molecules works appropriately as an auxiliary reagent for cell therapy manufacture. Letermovir (GMP) is an orally active CMV inhibitor. Letermovir (GMP) targets the CMV terminase complex rather than CMV DNA polymerase and exerts its antiviral activity. Letermovir (GMP) can be used in the study of CMV infection.

AIC246 has consistent antiviral efficacy, and there is remarkable selectivity of AIC246 for human cytomegaloviruses[1]. AD169 mutant strains and designated rAIC246-1 and rAIC246-2 are highly resistant to Letermovir (AIC246), with EC50s of 5.6 nM, 1.24 μM, 0.37 μM, respectively. Letermovir inhibits HCMV replication through a specific antiviral mechanism that involves the viral gene product UL56. Letermovir inhibits HCMV replication in cell culture by interfering with the proper cleavage/packaging of HCMV progeny DNA[2]. Letermovir inhibits the current gold standard GCV by more than 400-fold with respect to EC50s (mean, 4.5 nM versus 2 μM) and by more than 2,000-fold with respect to EC90 values (mean, 6.1 nM versus 14.5 μM)[3]. Letermovir in conbination with anti-HCMV drugs causes additive antiviral effects, but there is no interaction between letermovir and anti-HIV drugs[4].
