Triphosphate and diphosphate nucleoside prodrugs: broadening the therapeutic potential of nucleoside-based treatments
Multiple prodrug strategies have been developed to deliver nucleoside monophosphates (NMPs) and thereby overcome the initial kinase-mediated intracellular phosphorylation of nucleoside analogues (NAs), a major bottleneck in their activation. However, some NAs are limited by a second and/or third slow and inefficient ph...
