SMILES: C=C1[C@H](C[C@@H]([C@H]1CO)O)N2C=NC3=C2N=C(NC3=O)N
IUPAC name: 2-amino-9-[(1S,3R,4S)-4-hydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylidenecyclopentyl]-1H-purin-6-one
ChEBI definition: Guanine substituted at the 9 position by a 4-hydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylidenecyclopentyl group. A synthetic analogue of 2’-deoxyguanosine, it is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor with selective antiviral activity against hepatitis B virus. Entecavir is phosphorylated intracellularly to the active triphosphate form, which competes with deoxyguanosine triphosphate, the natural substrate of hepatitis B virus reverse transcriptase, inhibiting every stage of the enzyme’s activity, although it has no activity against HIV. It is used for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B.
Pharmacological roles (ChEBI): EC 2.7.7.49 (RNA-directed DNA polymerase) inhibitor, antiviral drug.
Also known as: Anhydrous entecavir, entecavir, Entecavir

Patent coverage: 5,648 distinct patent families (20,030 SureChEMBL compound mentions), from 3 matched compound structure(s). One matched structure accounts for 17,876 (89%) of the total. Mentions count patents naming the compound (not distinct inventions), so promiscuous / reference molecules inflate the mention figure — families are the dedup metric.
