Abstract excerpt
The carbocyclic analog of 2'-deoxyguanosine [(+-)-2-amino-1,9-dihydro-9-[(1 alpha,3 beta,4 alpha)-3-hydroxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentyl]-6H-purine-6-one] (2'-CDG) is highly active in cell culture against strains S148 and E377 of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), both of which code for thymidine kinase, and much less active against strain BW10168 which is deficient in this enzyme activity. Antiviral activity...
