There are still no vaccines against Zika virus but the study of zika helicase is one of the most promising area for scientific research. It is an enzyme essential for the virulence of Zika virus and blocking its activity may be a means to struggle against this virus.<ref>Xu S, Ci Y, Wang, Yang, Zhang L, Xu C, Qin C, Shi L. Zika virus NS3 is a canonical RNA helicase stimulated by NS5 RNA polymerase.Nucleic Acids Res. 2019 Sep 19;47(16):8693-8707. doi: 10.1093/nar/gkz650.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31361901</ref> The development of inhibitors targeting the viral helicase is becoming more and more studied by researchers. | There are still no vaccines against Zika virus but the study of zika helicase is one of the most promising area for scientific research.
