Abstract

Three acyl derivatives of amino acids, dicarbobenzoxy-l-lysine sodium, carbobenzoxy-l-aspartic acid-β-benzyl ester potassium, and N-3-phenylpropionyl-S-benzyl-l-cysteine potassium inhibit the growth of parainfluenza 1 (hemadsorption 2) virus. The growth of simian virus 40, vaccinia, poliomyelitis type 1, Semliki Forest, Eastern equine encephalitis, and Western equine encephalitis viruses was not affected by these compounds. Four other acyl derivatives of amino acids did not inhibit the growth of any of the viruses tested.
