This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_Antiviral agents, HIV mode of action Entry Inhibitors (EIs), HIV Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs) action Bind to an allosteric site that regulates reverse transcriptase activity rather than to the enzyme's active site; inhibits proviral production, Integrase Inhibitors action Binds to HIV integrase, the enzyme that inserts the HIV double-stranded DNA intermediate into host cell DNA, fomivirsen (Vitravene) mode of action A microRNA that has a nucleotide sequence complementary to a sequence in mRNA transcripts that encodes several proteins responsible for production of infectious CMV. Binding of fomivirsen to the target mRNA results in inhibition of viral protein synthesis., hepatitis C virus (HCV) examples telaprevir (Incivek); boceprevir (Victrelis); simeprevir (Olysio), remdesivir experimental Remdesivir (GS-5734™) is authorized for use under an EUA only for the treatment of patients with suspected or laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19. It appears to speed up recovery time of severe COVID-19 infections by several days as well as slightly lower the death rate., HIV mode of action HIV Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs), Antiviral Agents used to treat cytomegaloviruses (CMV), remdesivir mode of action Remdesivir is a nucleoside analog that resembles an adenine ribonucleotide. Once RNA-dependant RNA polymerase inserts remdesivir into the rowing RNA strand it terminates RNA synthesis., lamivudine (Epivir-HBV); adefovir dipivoxil (Hepsera) mode of action Chemically resemble a normal DNA nucleoside. Once inserted into the growing DNA chain it inhibits further viral DNA replication., telaprevir (Incivek); boceprevir (Victrelis); simeprevir (Olysio) mode of action A protease inhibitor that binds to an HCV-encoded protease and prevents it from cleaving the long polyprotein from polycistronic HCV genes into proteins essential to the structure and function of HCV., hepatitis B virus (HBV) examples lamivudine (Epivir-HBV); adefovir dipivoxil (Hepsera), amantadine (Symmetrel); rimantidine (Flumadine) mode of action blocks the uncoating step blocking viral replication, enfuvirtide (ENF; T-20; Fuzeon) action Binds to gp41 and blocks the fusion of the viral envelope with the cytoplasmic membrane of the host cell, Antiviral Agents used to treat HIV, gancyclovir (Cytovene; Vitrasert); valganciclovir (Valcyte); foscarnet (Foscavir); cidofovir (Vistide) mode of action Chemically resemble a normal DNA nucleoside. Once inserted into the growing DNA chain it inhibits further viral DNA replication., Antiviral Agents used to treat herpes simplex viruses (HSV); varicella zoster virus (VZV), HIV mode of action Integrase Inhibitors, hepatitis C virus (HCV) examples sofosbuvir (Sovaldi), ribavirin (Copegus; Rebetol; Virazole) mode of action Chemically resemble a normal RNA nucleoside. Once inserted into the growing RNA chain it inhibits further viral RNA replication.
