Nimolicinol

Nimolicinol is a tetranortriterpenoid compound. Nimolicinol binds to the ephrinB2 interaction interface of the Nipah virus attachment glycoprotein, interfering with virus-host cell adhesion, and exhibits anti-Plasmodium, anti-SARS-CoV-2, and larvicidal activities. Nimolicinol can be used in research on Nipah virus infection, malaria, COVID-19, and filariasis.

In Vitro

Nimolicinol (NCL) binds the Nipah virus attachment glycoprotein with a docking ΔG of -9.265 kcal/mol (RMSD 1.957 Å), interacting with Leu124, Asp219, Phe458, Val507, and Lys560 through hydrophobic contacts, with Tyr508 and Gln559 through hydrogen bonds, and with Arg236 through a salt bridge, all within Cavity I^[1].
Nimolicinol (compound 4) is a known tetranortriterpenoid isolated from Azadirachta indica neem seed oil^[2].
Nimolicinol binds to pfpk5 through hydrogen bonding and pi interactions, with a binding energy of -5.5 kcal/mol, exhibiting the highest binding affinity among the tested limonoids and supporting its potential as a pfpk5 inhibitor^[3].

In Vivo

Nimolicinol (10-50 ppm; aqueous larval medium) exhibited weak larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti, causing only 20% mortality after 48 h at 50 ppm and 10 ppm^[5].
Nimolicinol (10-50 ppm; aqueous larval medium) exhibited weak larvicidal activity against Culex quinquefasciatus, causing 30% mortality at 50 ppm and 15% mortality at 10 ppm after 48 h^[5].

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
