Molecular Docking and Identification of Candidate Blockers for Endonuclease Domain of Lassa Virus Polymerase as Potential Drugs
Lassa fever is a deadly hemorrhagic disease virus caused by Lassa virus (LASV) which is a member of the Arenaviridae virus family. Lassa virus-encoded L polymerase is required for the replication and transcription of the RNA virus. There is no available vaccine as ribavirin remains the only treatme...
