This is an enzyme that helps the virus to break out of the cell and so they can attack other cells and spread. Since this is an enzyme, a drug that is an enzyme inhibitor can be made to block it. The mumps and influenza viruses have this enzyme. Two such drugs that block this enzyme are oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza). These two are used for the influenza virus.
