AS-136A is a small molecule developed as part of the NIH Probes effort. AS-136A is a potent measles virus (MeV) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) inhibitor. AS-136A is very stable, decreases virus titer after 24 hours in physiological conditions, and serves as a positive control in MeV inhibitory assays.

AS-136A is a potent measles virus RdRp inhibitor.
AS-136A is a potent measles virus RdRp inhibitor. Measles virus (MV) is a member of the paramyxovirus family. Ribavirin (R9644) is the only drug available for treatment of paramyxoviruses, and it has limited efficacy against MV. A series of small molecules has been developed to inhibit viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), a protein vital to infection leading to the development of AS-136A, a very potent RdRp inhibitor. AS-136A has high stability and continues to decrease virus titer after 24 hours in physiologic conditions. AS-136A is now used as a positive control in experiments assaying MV inhibition. This compound is a product of the NIH Probes effort, also known as SID 24769845.

No effective therapeutic is currently in place for improved case management of severe measles or the rapid control of outbreaks. Through high-throughput screening, we recently identified a novel small-molecule class that potently blocks activity of the measles virus (MeV) RNA-dependent

The measles virus (MeV), a member of the paramyxovirus family, is an important cause of pediatric morbidity and mortality worldwide. In an effort to provide therapeutic treatments for improved measles management, we previously identified a small, non-nucleoside organic inhibitor of
