Peptides mimicking the β7/β8 loop of HIV'1 reverse transcriptase p51 as “hotspot-targeted” dimerization inhibitors

A conformationally constrained short peptide designed to target a protein−protein interaction hotspot in HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) disrupts p66-p51 interactions and paves the way to the development of novel RT dimerization inhibitors.
