Mode of inactivation of arenaviruses by disulfide-based compounds
Several disulfide-based compounds, including intermolecular aromatic disulfides of the type Ph-S-S-Ph and dithianes with the sulfur atoms tethered in a ring structure, have shown effective inhibitory activity against the arenaviruses Junin (JUNV), agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, and Tacaribe (...
