Donate today and join the fight to achieve global malaria elimination targets.
Together we can make a significant contribution to achieving malaria elimination targets.
Improving the health of vulnerable communities and changing lives is at the heart of what we do and who we are.
We have developed an assay using flavivirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase to test the inhibitory activity of potential antiviral agents. The effects of antiviral agents on RNA synthesis were examined in this assay using extracts of Vero cells infected with dengue virus type 2 or Kunjin virus. Several different classes of known polymerase inhibitors were tested. The synthesis of double-stranded replicative form RNA was inhibited in a dose-dependent fashion in the presence of the polyoxometalate HPA-23 [(NH4)18(NaW21Sb9O86)17].14 H2O and several structurally related compounds.
To achieve better health for vulnerable communities in Australia and internationally by accelerating the translation of research, discovery and evidence into sustainable health solutions.
