(s4dU)35: a novel, highly potent oligonucleotide inhibitor of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oligodeoxycytidylates were converted to s4dUMP-containing oligomers by treatment with liquid H2S. The inhibitory potency of the modified oligonucleotides on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase depended on the chain length and on the percentage of modification. The most potent reverse transcriptase inhibitor was (s4dU)35. The inhibitory pattern was competitive, when either poly(A) x (dT)16 or poly(C) x (dG)l6 was used as template-primer (variable substrate), suggesting that the free enzyme interacts with (s4dU)35. The Ki values were 3.0 and 2.2 nM in the presence of poly(A) x (dT)16 and poly(C) x (dG)16, respectively.

Specific targeting highly conserved residues in the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase primer grip region. Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel, potent, and broad spectrum NNRTIs with antiviral activity.
Pyrrolobenzoxazepinones (PBOs) represent a new class of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors (NNRTIs) whose prototype is 5. Molecular modeling studies based on the X-ray structures of HIV-1 RT prompted the synthesis of novel analogues which were tested as anti-HIV agents. The PBO derivatives specifically designed to target the highly co...
متن کاملStampidine is a potent inhibitor of Zidovudine- and nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor-resistant primary clinical human immunodeficiency virus type 1 isolates with thymidine analog mutations.
We report the antiretroviral activity of stavudine-5'-(p-bromophenyl methoxyalaninyl phosphate) (stampidine [STAMP]), a novel aryl phosphate derivative of stavudine, against primary clinical human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates. STAMP inhibited each one of nine clinical HIV-1 isolates of non-B envelope subtype and 20 genotypically and phenotypically nucleoside analog reverse tra...
متن کاملDNA chain termination activity and inhibition of human immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase by carbocyclic 2',3'-didehydro-2',3'-dideoxyguanosine triphosphate.
Carbocyclic 2',3'-didehydro-2',3'-dideoxyguanosine (carbovir, NSC 614846) is an anti-retroviral agent that may be useful in the treatment of AIDS. We have examined the ability of (-)-enantiomeric carbovir triphosphate to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (EC 2.7.7.49). A comparison of inhibition kinetics was made with 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxythymidine triph...

Two highly potent dihydroalkoxybenzyloxopyrimidine (DABO) derivatives targeting the nonnucleoside inhibitor (NNI) binding site of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptase (RT) have been designed based on the structure of the NNI binding pocket and tested for anti-HIV activity. Our lead DABO derivative, 5-isopropyl-2-[(methylthiomethyl)thio]-6-(benzyl)-pyrimidin-4-(1H)-on e, elic...
متن کاملThe thiocarboxanilide nonnucleoside inhibitor UC781 restores antiviral activity of 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) against AZT-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1.
N-[4-Chloro-3-(3-methyl-2-butenyloxy)phenyl]-2-methyl-3-furanca rbothioamide (UC781) is an exceptionally potent nonnucleoside inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase. We found that a 1:1 molar combination of UC781 and 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) showed high-level synergy in inhibiting the replication of AZT-resistant virus, implying that UC781 can res...
