Notes: 2-hydroxy Myristic acid is a hydroxy fatty acid that has been found in bovine, human, and horse milk, cow and buffalo cheeses, sea bass filet, seal oil, human vernix caseosa, and wool wax.{41690} It inhibits cleavage between the enterovirus capsid proteins VP4 and VP2, a process required for enterovirus infectivity, as well as Junin and Tacaribe viral replication (IC50s = 20.1 and 14.2 μM, respectively).{46233,46234} 2-hydroxy Myristic acid was previously characterized as a weak inhibitor of peptide myristoylation (Ki = 200 μM) but has been shown to be inactive in ARL1 cells when used at 100 μM.{46235,43858} [Matreya, LLC.
