Comparative biochemical analysis of HIV-1 subtype B and C integrase enzymes

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2009
Background Integrase inhibitors are currently being incorporated into highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Due to high HIV variability, integrase inhibitor efficacy must be evaluated against a range of integrase enzymes from different subtypes ...

Structure-Guided Optimization of HIV Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
Integrase mutations can reduce the effectiveness of the first-generation FDA-approved integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), raltegravir (RAL) and elvitegravir (EVG). The second-generation agent, dolutegravir (DTG), has enjoyed considerable clinical success; however, resistance-causing mutations that diminish the efficacy of DTG have appeared ...

Surveillance of HIV-1 transmitted integrase strand transfer inhibitor resistance in the UK. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Antimicrob Chemother, 2020
BACKGROUND:HIV treatment guidelines have traditionally recommended that all HIV-positive individuals are tested for evidence of drug resistance prior to starting ART.

The strand transfer oligonucleotide inhibitors of HIV-integrase

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2008
Retroviral integrase participates in two catalytic reactions, which require interactions with the two ends of the viral DNA in the 3'processing reaction, and with a targeted host DNA in the strand transfer reaction. The 3'-hydroxyl group of 2'-deoxyadenosine resulting from the specific removing of GT dinucleotide from the viral DNA in the processing ...

Integrase-deficient lentiviral vectors mediate efficient gene transfer to human vascular smooth muscle cells with minimal genotoxic risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We have previously shown that injury-induced neointima formation was rescued by adenoviral-Nogo-B gene delivery. Integrase-competent lentiviral vectors (ICLV) are efficient at gene delivery to vascular cells but present a risk of insertional mutagenesis.

Multiple choices for HIV therapy with integrase strand transfer inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2012
Two integrases inhibitors, raltegravir and elvitegravir, have now been approved by regulatory agencies for use in the treatment of HIV-infected patients; and the approval of a third such drug, dolutegravir, is expected during 2013 on the basis of several phase 3 clinical trials.

Structure of a HIV-1 IN-Allosteric inhibitor complex at 2.93 Å resolution: Routes to inhibitor optimization.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2023
HIV integrase (IN) inserts viral DNA into the host genome and is the target of the strand transfer inhibitors (STIs), a class of small molecules currently in clinical use.

Novel therapeutic strategies targeting HIV integrase

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2012
Integration of the viral genome into host cell chromatin is a pivotal and unique step in the replication cycle of retroviruses, including HIV. Inhibiting HIV replication by specifically blocking the viral integrase enzyme that mediates this step is an ...

Three main mutational pathways in HIV-2 lead to high-level raltegravir and elvitegravir resistance: implications for emerging HIV-2 treatment regimens. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
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

Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor-Related Changes in Body Mass Index and Risk of Diabetes: A Prospective Study From the RESPOND Cohort Consortium. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Infect Dis
BACKGROUND With integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) use associated with increased body mass index (BMI) and BMI increases associated with higher diabetes mellitus (DM) risk, this study explored the relationship between INSTI/non-INSTI regimens,
