Phenotypic Characterization of Replication‐Impaired Lenacapavir‐Resistant HIV Clinical Isolates
ABSTRACT Lenacapavir (LEN) is a potent, first‐in‐class long‐acting HIV‐1 capsid (CA) inhibitor, approved for treatment of people with multi‐drug resistant HIV in combination with other antiretrovirals. In clinical studies with LEN, the CA resistance‐associated mutations (RAMs) M66I, Q67H/K/N, K70H/N/R/S, N74D/H/K, A105S/T, and T107A/C/N/S were observed.

The Peptide PROTAC Modality: A New Strategy for Drug Discovery
Peptide PROTAC is a bifunctional molecule generally composed of a target protein binding peptide (TBP), a linker peptide (LP), an E3 ligase binding peptide (EBP), and a delivery‐enhancing peptide (DEP), which can bind to the target protein (P) and E3 ligase (E3), inducing P to be labeled with ubiquitin (Ub) and subsequently recognized and degraded by ...

Point‐of‐care nucleic acid testing – a step forward in controlling the HIV epidemic: A review
Abstract Introduction The HIV/AIDS epidemic, with 85.6 million infections and 40.4 million AIDS‐related deaths globally, remains a critical public health challenge. Current diagnostic methods, primarily fourth‐generation immunoassays, have limitations due to their long window periods, and most viral load assays require centralized testing protocols ...

Classification of Tangle Solutions for Integrases, A Protein Family that Changes DNA Topology [PDF]
Integrase proteins acting on circular double-stranded DNA often change its topology by transforming unknotted circles into torus knots and links. Two systems of tangle equations--corresponding to the two initial DNA sequences--arise when modelling this transformation: direct and inverted.

The aim of the study was to analyse the prevalence of integrase resistance mutations in integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)‐experienced HIV‐1‐infected patients and its predictors.

A programmatic assessment of dolutegravir adverse events and discontinuations in Uganda
Abstract Introduction Dolutegravir is now extensively used in sub‐Saharan Africa as a preferred component of antiretroviral therapy (ART). There is a paucity of large studies using routinely collected data from African people living with HIV on dolutegravir‐based regimens to inform HIV programmes.
