Fig 7. Peptide mediated inhibition of virus binding and infection.

A) Inhibition of Aichi H3N2 and Rostock H7N1 mediated hemagglutination by PeB and PeB^GF. K_i(HAI) values represent the minimum concentration for full hemagglutination inhibition. B and C) Infection inhibition of MDCK II cells with PeB, PeB^GF and PeB^P (MOI 0.05) with Aichi H3N2 (B) or Rostock H7N1 (C). Infection was followed by measuring the decrease of absorption of the MTS reagent. Error bars represent the SEM with n≥3. D and E) Neutralization of Aichi H3N2 (D) and Rostock H7N1 (E) by PeB and PeB^GF, while PeB^P served as a control. Error bars represent the SEM with n = 3.
