Furin is an enzyme belonging to the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family which process precursor proteins into biologically active products.Representative substrates include von Willebrand factor TGFi-1 precursor MMP-1 gp160 proparathyroid hormone and proalbumin. Peptide contains all D-amino acids, also called Hexa-D-Arg or Hexa-D-Arginine or (D-Arg)6-NH2Results from a recent paper and preprint show the presence of a furin cleavage site on the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 which is required for membrane fusion and replication. Inhibition of furin activity can stop viral replication.References1. Cameron A. et al. (2000) a€Polyarginines Are Potent Furin Inhibitorsa€ J. Biol. Chem. 275: 36741-36749.2. Henrich S. et al.
