近日,我国中国医学科学院、中国科学院等研究机构在全球范围内首次揭示了猴痘病毒DNA复制的工作机制。这一突破性研究为后续抗病毒药物的研发提供了关键的结构基础。
猴痘病毒是一种正痘病毒,与天花病毒具有相似性。该病毒可通过密切接触传播,引发猴痘病,表现为发热、皮疹等症状。研究人员一直试图了解猴痘病毒的复制过程,以期为防治该病提供有效手段。
此次研究中,科学家们运用先进的技术手段,对猴痘病毒的DNA复制过程进行了深入研究。他们发现,猴痘病毒的DNA复制机制与已知的其他正痘病毒有很大不同。这一发现为抗病毒药物的研发指明了新的方向,有望助力研制出更有效的抗病毒药物。

Recently, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and other research institutions in our country have for the first time revealed the mechanism of DNA replication of the monkeypox virus. This groundbreaking study provides a key structural basis for the subsequent research and development of antiviral drugs.
The monkeypox virus is a member of the orthopoxvirus family and is similar to the smallpox virus. The virus can be transmitted through close contact and causes monkeypox, characterized by fever, rash, and other symptoms. Researchers have been trying to understand the replication process of the monkeypox virus to provide effective means for the prevention and treatment of the disease.
In this study, scientists used advanced technology to delve into the DNA replication process of the monkeypox virus. They found that the DNA replication mechanism of the monkeypox virus is quite different from those of other orthopoxviruses. This discovery points to a new direction for the development of antiviral drugs and is expected to contribute to the creation of more effective antiviral drugs.
