Molecular insights into the mechanisms of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase resistance to nucleoside analogs.

Abstract excerpt

The causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, HIV-1, depends on one of its enzymes, reverse transcriptase, to copy its single stranded RNA genome into a double stranded DNA nucleic acid suitable for integration in the host cell genome. In the last two decades, the advances in the knowledge of the kinetic mechanism of reverse transcription and in the determination of the crystallographic structures...
