Abstract excerpt
In order to identify inhibitors of various drug-resistant forms of the human immunodeficiency virus protease (HIV PR), we have designed and synthesized pseudopeptide libraries with a general structure Z-mimetic-Aa1-Aa2-NH2. Five different chemistries for peptide bond replacement have been employed and the resulting five individual sublibraries tested with the HIV PR and its drug-resistant mutants. Each mutant...
