Table 2. Summary of the UV/VIS spectroscopic experiments on EBV R2 in comparison with similar studies performed on other R2s.
Bathophenanthroline-sulphonate | Catechol | |
EBV R2 | + | ++ |
E. coli R2 [56] | − | − |
Mouse R2 [55], [56] | +++ | +++ |
HSV2 R2 [28] | n/a | ++ |
The extent of the reactions was evaluated semi-quantitatively. The symbols indicate (+) positive reaction and (−) no reaction.
