Two-Metal Ion-Dependent Enzymes as Potential Antiviral Targets in Human Herpesviruses

ABSTRACT The majority of drug discovery efforts against herpesviruses have focused on nucleoside analogs that target viral DNA polymerases, agents that are associated with dose-limiting toxicity and/or a narrow spectrum of activity. We are pursuing a strategy based on targeting two-metal ion-depende...
