Insight into the Hantaan virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibition using in-silico approaches.

ABSTRACT: The Hantaan virus (HTN) is a member of the hantaviridae family. It is a segmented type, negative-strand virus (sNSVs). It causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, which includes fever, vascular hemorrhage, and renal failure. This illness is one of the most serious hemorrhagic diseases in the world, and it is a major public health concern due to its high mortality rate. The Hantaan virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex (RdRp) is involved in viral RNA transcription and replication for the survival and transmission of this virus. Therefore, it is a primary target for antiviral drug development. Interference with the endonucleolytic "cap-snatching" reaction by the HTN virus RdRp endonuclease domain is a particularly appealing approach for drug discovery against this virus. This RdRp
