HIV Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
Currently, 16 antiretroviral drugs are approved for treatment of HIV infection. However, even the best currently available regimens pose challenges with regard to adherence, toxicity, antiviral activity, and resistance. New drug development thus confronts the need for improved convenience and tolerability, reduced toxicity, and improved activity against both wild-type and drug-resistant viruses...
متن کامل3-Phosphono-L-alanine as pyrophosphate mimic for DNA synthesis using HIV-1 reverse transcriptase.
A series of sulf(on)ate and phosph(on)ate amino acid phosphoramidate analogues of deoxynucleotides were synthesized as potential substrates for HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. Taurine, L-cysteic acid, 3-phosphono-L-alanine, O-sulfonato-L-serine, and O-phospho-L-serine were investigated as leaving groups in an enzyme catalyzed DNA synthesis protocol. Among these analogues, the phosphonate congener ...
متن کاملSodium pyrophosphate inhibition of RNA.DNA hybrid degradation by reverse transcriptase.
Sodium pyrophosphate inhibits synthesis of anticomplementary DNA during a reverse transcriptase (RNA-directed DNA nucleotidyltransferase, EC 2.7.7.7) catalyzed reaction. In the presence of pyrophosphate, the complementary DNA remains stably complexed to the RNA template. In the absence of pyrophosphate, the DNA. RNA hybrid template is degraded and anticomplementary DNA is synthesized. High conc...
متن کاملNonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors are chemical enhancers of dimerization of the HIV type 1 reverse transcriptase.
Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are allosteric inhibitors of the HIV type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT). Yeast grown in the presence of many of these drugs exhibited dramatically increased association of the p66 and p51 subunits of the HIV-1 RT as reported by a yeast two-hybrid assay. The enhancement required drug binding by RT; introduction of a drug-resistance m...
متن کاملConformational changes in HIV-1 reverse transcriptase induced by nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor binding.
Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) are a group of small hydrophobic compounds with diverse structures that specifically inhibit HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT). NNRTIs interact with HIV-1 RT by binding to a single site on the p66 subunit of the p66/p51 heterodimeric enzyme, termed the NNRTI-binding pocket (NNRTI-BP). This binding interaction results in both short-range and ...
