Biochemical activity of RAGs is impeded by Dolutegravir, an HIV integrase inhibitor
HIV is a retrovirus that infects CD4 + T lymphocytes in human beings and causes immunodeficiency. In the recent years, various therapies have been developed against HIV, including targeting the HIV specific protein, integrase, responsible for integration

Investigation of furo[2,3-h]- and pyridazino[3,4-f]cinnolin-3-ol scaffolds as substrates for the development of novel HIV-1 integrase inhibitors [PDF]
With the aim to develop novel HIV-1 integrase inhibitors, we obtained a set of condensed ring systems based on the furo[2,3-h]cinnolin-3(2H)-one and pyridazino[3,4-f]cinnolin-3-ol scaffolds bearing a potential chelating pharmacophore, which can be ...

An Allosteric Mechanism for Inhibiting HIV-1 Integrase with a Small Molecule [PDF]
HIV-1 integrase (IN) is a validated target for developing antiretroviral inhibitors. Using affinity acetylation and mass spectrometric (MS) analysis, we previously identified a tetra-acetylated inhibitor (2E)-3-[3,4-bis(acetoxy)phenyl]-2-propenoate-N ...

Three main mutational pathways in HIV-2 lead to high-level raltegravir and elvitegravir resistance: implications for emerging HIV-2 treatment regimens. [PDF]
Human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) is intrinsically resistant to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and exhibits reduced susceptibility to several of the protease inhibitors used for antiretroviral therapy of HIV-1. Thus, there is a

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.

Incorporation of aptamers in the terminal loop of shRNAs yields an effective and novel combinatorial targeting strategy. [PDF]
Gene therapy by engineering patient's own blood cells to confer HIV resistance can potentially lead to a functional cure for AIDS. Toward this goal, we have previously developed an anti-HIV lentivirus vector that deploys a combination of shRNA, ribozyme ...

Long-acting formulation of the integrase inhibitor cabotegravir (CAB LA) is in clinical development for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Here, using a SHIV macaque model, the authors show emergence of integrase mutations associated to CAB LA PrEP ...

Mathematical model of a serine integrase-controlled toggle switch with a single input [PDF]
Dual-state genetic switches that can change their state in response to input signals can be used in synthetic biology to encode memory and control gene expression.
