Abstrakt: | Nucleoside analog inhibitors (NAIs) are an important class of antiviral agents. Although highly effective, some NAIs with activity against hepatitis C virus (HCV) can cause toxicity, presumably due to off-target inhibition of host mitochondrial RNA polymerase (POLRMT). The in vitro nucleotide substrate specificity of POLRMT was studied in order to explore structure-activity relationships that can facilitate the identification of nontoxic NAIs. These findings have important implications for the development of all anti-RNA virus NAIs. (Copyright © 2017 American Society for Microbiology.) |
