The antiherpes drug (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BVdU) interferes with formation of N-linked and of O-linked oligosaccharides of the herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoprotein C. 1985

S Olofsson, and M Lundström, and R Datema

In HSV-1 infected cell the antiherpes drug (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BVdU) exerted at least three different effects on glycosylation of glycoprotein gC. First, an overall decrease of protein glycosylation occurred due to inhibition of synthesis of the lipid-linked oligosaccharides, precursors of N-linked oligosaccharides of gC. Second, an inhibition of processing of N-linked oligosaccharides occurred after the acquisition of endo H-resistance, and possibly due to inhibition of galactose incorporation. Third, a small inhibition of incorporation of glucosamine into O-linked oligosaccharides, and, may be associated with this, a change in the proportion of two different classes of O-linked oligosaccharides of gC, namely those with terminal N-acetylgalactosamine and those with terminal sialic acid.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009844 Oligosaccharides Carbohydrates consisting of between two (DISACCHARIDES) and ten MONOSACCHARIDES connected by either an alpha- or beta-glycosidic link. They are found throughout nature in both the free and bound form. Oligosaccharide
D001973 Bromodeoxyuridine A nucleoside that substitutes for thymidine in DNA and thus acts as an antimetabolite. It causes breaks in chromosomes and has been proposed as an antiviral and antineoplastic agent. It has been given orphan drug status for use in the treatment of primary brain tumors.

D000998 Antiviral Agents Agents used in the prophylaxis or therapy of VIRUS DISEASES. Some of the ways they may act include preventing viral replication by inhibiting viral DNA polymerase; binding to specific cell-surface receptors and inhibiting viral penetration or uncoating; inhibiting viral protein synthesis; or blocking late stages of virus assembly.

D014415 Tunicamycin An N-acetylglycosamine containing antiviral antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces lysosuperificus. It is also active against some bacteria and fungi, because it inhibits the glucosylation of proteins. Tunicamycin is used as tool in the study of microbial biosynthetic mechanisms.
