Lomibuvir is a non-nucleoside inhibitor of the RNA-directed RNA polymerase of hepatitis C virus (HCV, Ki = 17 nM) that inhibits primer-dependent RNA synthesis selectively over de novo RNA synthesis. It inhibits HCV replication in Huh7.5 cells expressing the 1b/Con1 HCV subgenomic replicon (EC50 = 5 nM).Formal Name:...

Description: Cis-Lomibuvir (cis-VX-222), a cis-isomer of Lomibuvir, is a selective non-nucleoside inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase (RdRp), targeting thumb pocket 2 with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 17 nM. It exhibits an EC50 of 5.2 nM against the 1b/Con1 HCV subgenomic replicon,...
