The family Flaviviridae comprises several major human pathogens including Hepatitis C virus (HCV, genus hepacivirus), yellow fever or dengue virus (genus flavivirus).The Flaviviridae genomes are made of a single stranded RNA segment that encodes a single polyprotein that is subsequently matured into some ten viral proteins.The non-structural proteins are released from the C-terminus of the polyprotein and participate during the intracellular part of the infectious cycle in transcribing and replicating the viral genome in the context of a membrane-bound multiprotein complex named the replication complex.Several of these non-structural proteins represent important targets against which specific antiviral inhibitors have been developed, several of which are currently used for therapy.X-ray crystal structures of these enzymes and more generally a deeper understanding of the molecular basis of their activities have helped powerfully in improving the antiviral compounds currently approved or in advanced clinical trials.For the latter molecules, a prime target is the RNAdependent RNA polymerase (RdRp, NS5B for HCV and pestiviruses, NS5 for flaviviruses).Here we report our current knowledge of the structural basis for viral RNA synthesis by NS5B and the perspectives it offers for further drug design.
