Application

(E)-5-(2-Bromovinyl)-2′-deoxyuridine (BVdU) has been used:
  • as a substrate for thymidine kinase 1 to study its effects on cancer cells by a dual-promoter integrator approach
  • as a bromovinyl nucleoside analog to study its effects on varicella-zoster virus replication in a mouse model
  • as a nucleoside analog prodrug to study its effects on transduced cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

(E)-5-(2-Bromovinyl)-2′-deoxyuridine(BVdU) is a thymidine analog and a well-known inhibitor of Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and Varicella zoster virus (VZV) infections. It shows a minimal effect on HSV-2. BVdU shows therapeutic effects against herpetic keratitis, recurrent herpes labialis, and herpes zoster. BVdU undergoes phosphorylation at its 5’-diphosphate and further to 5’-triphosphate by the virus-encoded thymidine kinase, this results in BVdU acting as a competitive inhibitor to the viral DNA polymerase.
