Direct binding of ledipasvir to HCV NS5A: mechanism of resistance to an HCV antiviral agent.

Direct binding of ledipasvir to HCV NS5A: mechanism of resistance to an HCV antiviral agent.

Ledipasvir, a direct acting antiviral agent (DAA) targeting the Hepatitis C Virus NS5A protein, exhibits picomolar activity in replicon cells. While its mechanism of action is unclear, mutations that confer resistance to ledipasvir in HCV replicon cells are located in NS5A, suggesting that NS5A is t...
