Discovery of non-nucleoside inhibitors of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase competing with the nucleotide substrate

How odd! A new class of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors with a 6-vinylpyrimidine scaffold (1) has been found to inhibit HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) by competition with the nucleotide substrate after binding to the non-nucleoside inhibitor binding pocket of the enzyme. Molecular...

Sumario:How odd! A new class of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors with a 6-vinylpyrimidine scaffold (1) has been found to inhibit HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) by competition with the nucleotide substrate after binding to the non-nucleoside inhibitor binding pocket of the enzyme. Molecular modeling studies have been performed to elucidate their peculiar behavior.
