2,3-Bis(acetylmercaptomethyl)#quinoxaline (BAMMQ) is an #antiviralAgent which inhibits #poliovirus #RNASynthesis #inVitro and #inVivo and inhibits #humanHerpesvirus1 multiplication in vitro. It does not interfere with attachment, penetration or #DNASynthesis, but interrupts a late stage in virus assembly and/or maturation. BAMMQ was first identified as an antiviral agent in 1974, when it was shown to inhibit poliovirus growth by 99.8% or more at concentrations as low as 10−5 M. That same year.

1/ Benchtop DNA printers are coming soon—and biosecurity experts are worried; Report calls for better safeguards to prevent bioterrorists from weaponizing new technology

Over the next 2 to 5 years...the length of stretches of DNA that can be synthesized with these machines will likely increase from about 200 base pairs today to as many as 7000 base pairs, the size of the smallest viruses.
