MULTIPLE VIRTUAL SCREENING APPROACHES FOR FINDING NEW HEPATITIS C VIRUS RNA-DEPENDENT RNA POLYMERASE INHIBITORS: STRUCTURE-BASED SCREENS AND MOLECULAR DYNAMICS FOR THE PURSUE OF NEW POLY PHARMACOLOGICAL INHIBITORS

Multiple virtual screening approaches for finding new Hepatitis c virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitors: Structure-based screens and molecular dynamics for the pursue of new poly pharmacological inhibitors

Abstract The RNA polymerase NS5B of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a well-characterised drug target with an active site and four allosteric binding sites.This work presents a workflow for virtual screening and its application to Drug Bank screening targeting the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) RNA polymerase non-nucleoside binding sites.Potential polypharmacol
