Desciclovir

CAS: 84408-37-7

Desciclovir is an antiviral agent, which is a synthetic nucleoside analog derived from guanine. Its mode of action involves the selective inhibition of viral DNA polymerase, leading to the termination of viral DNA chain elongation. By mimicking the natural substrates of the viral nucleic acid synthesis machinery, Desciclovir effectively disrupts the replication of viral genetic material, impeding the proliferation of the virus within the host cells.
