Chemical genetics strategy identifies an HCV NS5A inhibitor with a potent clinical effect

TL;DR: These results provide the first clinical validation of an inhibitor of HCV NS5A, a protein with no known enzymatic function, as an approach to the suppression of virus replication that offers potential as part of a therapeutic regimen based on combinations ofHCV inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Survey of the Role of Noncovalent Sulfur Interactions in Drug Design

TL;DR: The role of sulfur interactions in protein structure and function is discussed and although relatively rare, intermolecular interactions between ligand C-S σ* orbitals and proteins are illustrated.
