Descripción

2',3'-O-Isopropylidenecytidine (2,3-iC) is an antiviral agent that inhibits the activity of cytidine deaminase, an enzyme that is necessary for the production of uridine. The inhibition of this enzyme leads to a decrease in the amount of cytosine and uracil, which are necessary for RNA synthesis. 2,3-iC has been shown to be active against herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2, influenza A virus, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It also inhibits the replication of other viruses by inhibiting their polymerase function. 2,3-iC has been found to have inhibitory properties on mammalian cells that are due to its ability to inhibit cellular metabolism by blocking the conversion of chloride into hydrogen ions. This drug also possesses functional groups that allow it to bind with ribose phosphate at certain points along the molecule's length.
