Dioxolane guanosine 5'-triphosphate, an alternative substrate inhibitor of wild-type and mutant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. Steady state and pre-steady state kinetic analyses.

Abstract excerpt

The frequency of human immunodeficiency virus, type 1 (HIV-1) mutations in response to antiviral therapy and resulting drug resistance is of major concern. Amdoxovir ((-)-beta-D-2,6-diaminopurine dioxolane), the prodrug of dioxolane guanosine (DXG), is currently in phase I/II clinical development for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. In vitro, HIV-1 mutants resistant to 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine...
