DNA encapsidation as a target for anti-herpesvirus drug therapy.

Antiviral research - 1 Jul 2003

Visalli Robert J, van Zeijl Marja

Abstract excerpt

The current repertoire of approved anti-herpesviral drugs consists primarily of nucleoside analogues that inhibit viral replication by targeting the virus-encoded DNA polymerase. This class of agents has been critical in controlling infections by herpes simplex, varicella zoster, and cytomegalovirus. However, because nucleoside analogues share a similar mechanism of action, treatment options are limited once...
