Cards

Term
Pleconaril
Definition
Binds capsid/ blocks entry
Blocks many picornaviruses
Term
Enfuvirtide
Definition
blocks a conformational change in HIV envelope gp41 that is required for fusion and viral entry
Term
Maraviroc
Definition
blocks attachment of HIV by binding to CCR5
Term
Amantadine
Definition
blocks ion channels that allow H+ to enter virions within endosomes and inhibits uncoating of influenza virion
Term
Nucleoside analogues
Definition
Drugs specific for viral polymerase
Activated by viral kinases in infected cells
Term
Acyclovir
Definition
Nucleoside analogue
preferentially phosphorylated by HERPES thymidine kinase
incorporated into DNA by viral DNA pol
Term
Ganciclovir
Definition
Cytomegalovirus serine/threonine protein kinase phosphorylates Ganciclovir
Term
Azidothymidine
Definition
phosphorylated by cell Thymidylate kinase and nucleoside diphosphate kinase
HIV-1 RT incorporates into DNA- premature chain termination
Term

Definition
selectively target viral replication enzymes
bind near active site of the enzyme
Term
Nevirapine

Definition
protease inhibitor of HIV-1
Peptidomimetic drug that mimics peptide
Term
Zanamivir/ oseltamivir
Definition
neuraminidase inhibitor
cleave sialic acid, releasing virus
