Description
By focusing on general molecular mechanisms of antiviral drugs rather than therapies for individual viruses, this ready reference provides the critical knowledge needed to develop entirely novel therapeutics and to target new viruses.
It begins with a general discussion of antiviral strategies, followed by a broad survey of known viral targets, such as reverse transcriptases, proteases, neuraminidases, RNA polymerases, helicases and primases, as well as their known inhibitors. The final section contains several cases studies of recent successful antiviral drug development.
Edited by Erik de Clercq, the world authority on small molecule antiviral drugs, who has developed more new antivirals than anyone else.

and Jihoceska (Bude?jovice), Czech Republic.
For his pioneering efforts in antiviral research, Professor De Clercq received
in 1996 the Aventis award from the American Society for Microbiology, and in
2000 the Maisin Prize for Biomedical Sciences from the Belgian National Science
Foundation. In 2008 he was elected Inventor of the Year by the European Union.
Together with Dr. Anthony Fauci, Prof. De Clercq received the Dr. Paul Janssen
Award for Biomedical Research in 2010.
He is the (co)inventor of a number of antiviral drugs, used for the treatment
of HSV (valaciclovir, Valtrex , Zelitrex ), VZV (brivudin, Zostex , Brivirac
, Zerpex ), CMV (cidofovir, Vistide ), HBV (adefovir dipivoxil, Hepsera ), and
HIV infections (AIDS) (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, Viread ).
