Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
sofosbuvir the enzyme (RdRp) of the SARS-CoV-2 RNA virus represents the most optimal target for an antiviral drug. Linear amino acid sequence as well as molecule structure show the highest homology to RdRps of other positive-sense RNA viruses. It is highly predictable that an antiviral developed for an RNA virus with a genome of the same polarity (i.e. sofosbuvir for HCV) could have a higher inhibitory efficacy against the SARS-CoV-2, compared to antiviral developed for negative-sense RNA viruses Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2

Linear amino acid sequence as well as molecule structure show the highest homology to RdRps of other positive-sense RNA viruses. It is highly predictable that an antiviral developed for an RNA virus with a genome of the same polarity (i.e. Sofosbuvir for Hepatitis C virus) could have a higher inhibitory efficacy against the SARS-CoV-2, compared to antiviral developed for negative-sense RNA viruses Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
