Disclosed herein are prokaryotic homologs of viperin (pVips), and nucleotide and nucleoside analogs produced from pVips. These nucleotide and nucleoside analogs stop nucleotide chain synthesis and provide host cells with resistance to viral infections by targeting actively replicating viral genome. Further, these nucleotide and nucleoside analogs decrease DNA replication in malignant cells. Further disclosed are methods of identifying pVips, and nucleotide and nucleoside analogs produced thereof.

Fungal to antiviral : A new fungal radical‐SAMenzymehomologue of the human antiviralenzyme can catalyse the transformation of a range of natural or unnatural nucleotides to their analogues through a proton‐coupled electron transfer mechanism. The enzyme offers new biocatalytic routes for synthesis of 3′‐deoxy nucleotides/nucleosides as an important group of antiviral, antibacterial, or anticancer
