The Molecular Docking of Specific Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitory Ligands onto the Molecular Model of HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase [PDF]
Trends in Pharmaceutical SciencesHIV-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.

Focus on chirality of HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [PDF]
, 2016 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.

Reverse Transcriptase Jumps and Gaps
Journal of General Virology, 1996 Introduction. Retroviruses are single-stranded RNA viruses of eukaryotes. Different subfamilies have been described. Avian or murine oncoviruses induce neoplasms, whereas lentiviruses, typified by human immunodeficiency virus and spumaviruses, produce persistent infections.

DGR mutagenic transposition occurs via hypermutagenic reverse transcription primed by nicked template RNA. [PDF]
, 2017 Diversity-generating retroelements (DGRs) are molecular evolution machines that facilitate microbial adaptation to environmental changes. Hypervariation occurs via a mutagenic retrotransposition process from a template repeat (TR) to a variable repeat ...

Reverse Transcriptase and Cellular Factors: Regulators of HIV-1 Reverse Transcription
Viruses, 2009 There is ample evidence that synthesis of HIV-1 proviral DNA from the viral RNA genome during reverse transcription requires host factors. However, only a few cellular proteins have been described in detail that affect reverse transcription and interact ...

Reverse-Transcriptase Characteristics of Hepatitis B Virus Polymerase Gene in Treatment-Naïve Asymptomatic Chronic Hepatitis B Individuals [PDF]
, 2017 Nucleos(t)ide analogues (NUCs) remain the main treatment for chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Long-term use of NUCs significantly reduces disease progression; however, it might lead to resistance-associated mutations.
