Application
Lamivudine: An L-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor
Lamivudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor that active against HIV1, HIV2, and hepatitis B. Lamivudine is a synthetic L-nucleoside analogue of the naturally occurring D-nucleoside 2’-deoxycytidine. Intracellularly, lamivudine is converted by cellular enzymes to the active metabolite, lamivudine-5'-triphosphate. The triphosphate inhibits the activity of viral reverse transcriptase both by competing with the natural substrate, 2’-deoxycytidine-5'-triphosphate, and by its incorporation into viral DNA causing termination of viral DNA chain. (The product is for research purpose only.)
