We have examined the capacity of a series of 6-substituted pyrimidine and 2-substituted purine derivatives to inhibit mammalian thymidine kinase and the thymidine kinases encoded by type 1 and type 2 herpes simplex viruses. Several N2-substituted guanine and deoxy guanosine derivatives displayed selective inhibitory activity against the HSV-1 and HSV-2 thymidine kinases by competing with the phosphorylation of thymidine, suggesting a possible novel pharmacological approach to herpes viruses infections.
