Function
[KITH_HHV11] In latent infection, may allow the virus to be reactivated and to grow in cells lacking a high concentration of phosphorylated nucleic acid precursors, such as nerve cells that do not replicate their genome (By similarity).
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Molecular modeling and phosphorylation assay in vitro were employed to select a novel unsaturated 1,3-dihydroxyisobutenyl thymine derivative 6 as ligand for HSV-1 TK which may be of interest as lead for the development of an positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent. Compound 6 was successfully prepared using modified approaches. A significant improvement over the syntheses involving pathways A and B (1% and 3% overall yield, respectively), was observed using synthetic route C (14% overall yield).
