The HCV NS5B polymerase, when complexed with certain inhibitors, adopts a conformation in which the finger loop region defined by amino acid residues 18 to 35 is displaced to expose a binding pocket defined generally by amino acid residues 392, 393, 395, 396, 399, 424, 425, 428, 429, 492, 493, 494, 495, 496, 500 and 503. This newly exposed binding pocket defines a novel target in the search of further chemical entities which are capable of binding to HCV NS5B and modulating, or preferably inhibiting, the polymerase activity of HCV NS5B.
