Prevalence of HIV-1 drug resistance among women screening for HIV prevention trials in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa (MTN-009). [PDF]
A major concern with using antiretroviral (ARV)-based products for HIV prevention is the potential spread of drug resistance, particularly from individuals who are HIV-infected but unaware of their status.

The Molecular Docking of Specific Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitory Ligands onto the Molecular Model of HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase [PDF]
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) is a crucial enzyme in HIV replication and AIDS progression. It consists of p66 and p51 subunits and converts viral RNA into double-stranded DNA for integration into the host cell's genome.

HIV Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors of Natural Origin [PDF]
Inhibitors of HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) are important drugs for the treatment of acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome (AIDS). One approach to identify novel inhibitors of HIV-1-RT is the screening of natural compounds. Many natural products have been shown to be active as RT inhibitors. These compounds belong to a wide range of different structural

Focus on chirality of HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [PDF]
Chiral HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are of great interest since one enantiomer is often more potent than the corresponding counterpart against the HIV-1 wild type (WT) and the HIV-1 drug resistant mutant strains.

Protein expression from unintegrated HIV-1 DNA introduces bias in primary in vitro post-integration latency models [PDF]
To understand the persistence of latently HIV-1 infected cells in virally suppressed infected patients, a number of in vitro models of HIV latency have been developed.
