Localized Changes in the gp120 Envelope Glycoprotein Confer Resistance to Human Immunodeficiency Virus Entry Inhibitors BMS-806 and #155
11 Mar 2004
Abstract excerpt
BMS-806 and the related compound, #155, are novel inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) entry that bind the gp120 exterior envelope glycoprotein. BMS-806 and #155 block conformational changes in the HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins that are induced by binding to the host cell receptor, CD4. We tested a panel of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein mutants and identified several that were resistant to the...
