β-L-1- Uracil (L-BHDU) Inhibits Varicella Zoster Virus Replication by Depleting the Cellular dTTP Pool

C. De, D. Liu, U. S. Singh…·J. F. Moffat

This study shows L-BHDU inhibits VZV replication by depleting dTTP, suggesting it targets viral DNA synthesis rather than cellular metabolism.

β-L-1- uracil (L-BHDU) effectiveness against varicella-zoster virus and herpes simplex virus type 1 depends on thymidine kinase activity

C. De, D. Liu, D. Depledge…·J. F. Moffat

This study shows L-BHDU's effectiveness against VZV and HSV-1 relies on thymidine kinase activity, as resistant strains have mutations in TK that impair drug phosphorylation.
