VIROLOGY
MECHANISM OF ANTIVIRAL ACTION: Acyclovir is a synthetic purine
nucleoside analogue with _in vitro _and
_in vivo _inhibitory activity against herpes simplex virus types 1
(HSV-1), 2 (HSV-2), and varicella-zoster
virus (VZV).
The inhibitory activity of acyclovir is highly selective due to its
affinity for the enzyme thymidine
kinase (TK) encoded by HSV and VZV. This viral enzyme converts
acyclovir into acyclovir
monophosphate, a nucleotide analogue. The monophosphate is further
converted into diphosphate by
cellular guanylate kinase and into triphosphate by a number of
cellular enzyme
