PASSAGE
A novel, enveloped, single-stranded RNA virus is identified as the cause of a respiratory illness. Its replication cycle is characterized by entry via a surface fusion protein, translation of its genome into a single large polyprotein, and cleavage of this polyprotein by a virus-encoded protease. The virus replicates entirely in the cytoplasm using its own RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and does not have a DNA intermediate phase.
Based on the life cycle described in the passage, an agent from which of the following drug classes would be LEAST plausible as a therapeutic candidate for this new virus?
