GS-443902 trisodium (GS-441524 triphosphate trisodium) is a potent viral RNA-dependent RNA-polymerases (RdRp) inhibitor with IC 50 s of 1.1 μM, 5 μM for RSV RdRp and HCV RdRp, respectively. GS-443902 trisodium is the active triphosphate metabolite of Remdesivir (GS-5734).
Streptolydigin inhibits RNA synthesis by binding to RNA polymerase and does not inhibit eukaryotic RNApolymerases. Streptolydigin is a 3-acetyltetramic acid antibiotic and a potent bacterial RNA polymerase inhibitor (Ki: 18 μM and a Kd: 15 μM).
3'-Deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate (3'-dUTP) is a nucleotide analogue that inhibits DNA-dependent RNApolymerases I and II. 3'-Deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate strongly and competitively inhibits the incorporations of UTP into RNA with a Ki value of 2.0 μM[1]. 3'-Deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate (3'-dUTP) is synthesized starting from cordycepin in good yield. 3'-Deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate strongly and competitively inhibits the incorporations of UTP into RNA by the RNApolymerases. 3'-Deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate will be useful in studies at the molecular level on the relationship of template and substrate in RNA synthesis with chromatin, isolated nuclei or permeable cells, because it does not have any effect on poly (rA) synthesis[1].

Ribavirin-13C5is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ribavirin by GC- or LC-MS. Ribavirin is an antiviral guanosine nucleoside analog.1,2Upon entry into cells, ribavirin is metabolized to an active triphosphate form that induces viral RNA chain termination and inhibits viral polymerases. It reduces replication in a panel of seven RNA and four DNA viruses in Vero cells (EC50s = 2-95 μg/ml).3Ribavirin also reduces replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Vero cells (EC50= 109.5 μM).4Aerosol administration of ribavirin (30 mg/kg) reduces mortality in a mouse model of influenza A infection.5Formulations containing ribavirin have been used in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and viral hemorrhagic fevers. 1.Gilbert, B.E., and Knight, V.Biochemistry and clinical applications of ribavirinAntimicrob.

Thio-ITP, also known as 6-Thioinosine 5'-triphosphate, is a competitive inhibitor of RNA polymerase activity. It exhibits a strong apparent affinity towards the polymerases, with Ki values of 40.9 μM for RNA polymerase I and 38.0 μM for RNA polymerase II.
