How HIV-1 Integrase Associates with Human Mitochondrial Lysyl-tRNA Synthetase
Replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) requires the packaging of tRNALys,3 from the host cell into the new viral particles. The GagPol viral polyprotein precursor associates with mitochondrial lysyl-tRNA synthetase (mLysRS) in a ...

Protease‐mediated maturation of M‐PMV reverse transcriptase into a functional heterodimer
Abstract Reverse transcriptase (RT) of retroviruses orchestrates viral replication, yet its structural diversity remains poorly understood. Well‐studied RTs, such as those from HIV‐1, murine leukemia virus, and avian myeloblastosis virus, were characterized decades ago, but less prominent retroviruses have escaped detailed analysis.

Abstract Background Erectile dysfunction in people living with HIV is a multifactorial disease, but the role of penile vascular status assessed by dynamic penile color Doppler echography is underexplored. Objectives This study assessed penile vascular status in young males living with HIV experiencing erectile dysfunction, comparing them to HIV ...

Resistance against Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors and Relevance to HIV Persistence
Drug resistance prevents the successful treatment of HIV-positive individuals by decreasing viral sensitivity to a drug or a class of drugs. In addition to transmitted resistant viruses, treatment-naïve individuals can be confronted with the problem of ...

From the discovery of HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibitors using enzyme-based assays in 1992, it has taken 15 years to achieve success in human clinical trials. Currently available antiretroviral drugs set high clinical standards in efficacy and long-term safety for upcoming novel HIV/AIDS therapeutic agents.

Efavirenz and CYP2C9 Genetic Polymorphisms Reduce CYP2C9 Activity in Healthy Participants
ABSTRACT Efavirenz's effects on cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) activity have not been formally characterized in vivo. We conducted the first clinical drug–drug interaction (DDI) study to test the effect of chronic efavirenz dosing on CYP2C9 activity, using tolbutamide as a selective probe.

HIV Integrase Inhibitors Block Replication of Alpha-, Beta-, and Gammaherpesviruses [PDF]
The catalytic site of the HIV integrase is contained within an RNase H-like fold, and numerous drugs have been developed that bind to this site and inhibit its activity.

The Molecular Biology of HIV Integrase [PDF]
Integration of viral DNA into cellular DNA is an essential step in the replication cycle of HIV and other retroviruses. The first antiviral drugs that target integrase, the viral enzyme that catalyzes DNA integration, have recently been approved and more are in the pipeline. These drugs bind to an intermediate in DNA integration called the intasome, in

Bee products as alternatives in the treatment of viral infections
Abstract Medicines used in the treatment of viral infections usually reduce symptoms. There is a need to develop drugs that inhibit the viruses and do not merely relieve the symptoms. Natural bee products possess many pharmacological properties and are widely used in folk medicine. There are many studies on the antibacterial effects of bee products but
