9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)guanine as an inhibitor of herpes simplex virus replication. 1979

Y M Centifanto, and H E Kaufman

The drug 9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl)guanine effectively inhibits herpes simplex virus replication. It is selectively phosphorylated by the virus-induced thymidine kinase but not by normal cellular thymidine kinase.
