The correlations between chemical structure properties and antiviral activities of HIV-1 inhibitors: The study of anti-AIDS

In this work, we calculated the several physico chemical properties containing of solubility (byVCL), lipophilicity (by milinspiration), dipole and quadrupole moments (by Density FunctionalTheory) for 7 AZT analogs, and compared these parameters with inhibition assays of them. It isresulted; cytotoxicity of these drugs is related with their lipophilicity inversely. With using of thisresult, for...

Effect of Biomolecular Conformation on Docking Simulation: A Case Study on a Potent HIV-1 Protease Inhibitor

Human immunodeficiency virus infection / acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a disease pertained to the human immune system. Given its crucial role in viral replication, HIV-1 protease (HIV-1 PR) is a prime therapeutic target in AIDS therapy. In this regard, the dynamic aspects of ligand-enzyme interactions may indicate an important role of conformational variability in HIV-1 PR in...

The Effect of Visual Aids on Elementary Iranian EFL Learners’ Vocabulary Learning

This study aimed to investigate the effect of visual aids on elementary Iranian EFL learners’ vocabulary learning. To achieve the aim of the study, 60 elementary EFL learners were selected based on their performance on proficiency test. After administering the pretest, the participants of the experimental group received vocabulary visually. The teacher used different kinds of strategies such as...
