Covalent inhibitors for eradication of drug-resistant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase: From design to protein crystallography
21 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Development of resistance remains a major challenge for drugs to treat HIV-1 infections, including those targeting the essential viral polymerase, HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT). Resistance associated with the Tyr181Cys mutation in HIV-1 RT has been a key roadblock in the discovery of nonnucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTIs). It is the principal point mutation that arises from treatment of HIV-infected patients...
