Nonnucleoside Inhibitors of HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase: from the Biology of Reverse Transcription to Molecular Design
1 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
Replication of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) uses a viral reverse transcriptase (RT) to convert its positive-strand RNA into double stranded DNA, which is then integrated into host genome. Reverse transcription is a complex event involving p66 and p51 RT subunits but also several viral proteins including Nef, Tat, Vif, IN, NCp7 and p55gag. Viral RNA itself forms a primer/template complex by association...
