Title: Foot-and-mouth disease virus 3C protease: Recent structural and functional insights into an antiviral target Cord-id: urw64az2 Document date: 2006_8_14
ID: urw64az2
Snippet: The 3C protease from foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV 3C(pro)) is critical for viral pathogenesis, having vital roles in both the processing of the polyprotein precursor and RNA replication. Although recent structural and functional studies have revealed new insights into the mechanism and function of the enzyme, key questions remain that must be addressed before the potential of FMDV 3C(pro) as an antiviral drug target can be realised.
