A dual inhibitor of PIP5K1C and PIKfyve prevents SARS-CoV-2 entry into cells
“the development of new small molecule-based antiviral candidates is imperative to improve clinical outcomes against SARS-CoV-2. In this study, we identified UNI418, a dual PIKfyve and PIP5K1C inhibitor, as a new chemical agent that inhibits SARS-CoV-2 entry into host cells.”
