What drugs are there for nucleic acids?

Pharmaceutical nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA targeting nucleic acids, are important substances to guide protein's synthesis and control cell division. Interfering with or blocking the synthesis of nucleic acid, the basic substance for the proliferation of bacteria, viruses and tumor cells, can effectively kill or inhibit bacteria, germs and tumor cells. Drugs for nucleic acids mainly include some antibiotics, antiviral drugs, quinolones, anti-tumor drugs and so on. Drugs acting on RNA targets: including rifamycin antibiotics, the mechanism of action is to affect RNA synthesis; Antitumor drugs, such as fluorouracil, actinomycin D, daunorubicin, adriamycin and procamycin, have the mechanism of inhibiting RNA synthesis. Drugs acting on DNA targets: including quinolones, the mechanism of action is to block DNA synthesis; Antiviral drugs such as acyclovir, iodine, cytarabine, cytarabine and zidovudine interfere with DNA synthesis. Antitumor drugs such as nitrogen mustard, cyclophosphamide, Cetepa, methotrexate, hydroxyurea, mitomycin, bleomycin, busulfan, cisplatin, camptothecin, etc. The mechanism is to destroy the structure and function of DNA.
