Book Synopsis Human Immunodeficiency Virus Reverse Transcriptase by : Stuart LeGrice
Download or read book Human Immunodeficiency Virus Reverse Transcriptase written by Stuart LeGrice and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reverse Transcriptase (RT) of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) arguably ranks amongst one of the most extensively studied retroviral enzymes. Heterologous expression and purification of HIV-1 RT in the early eighties, approval of the first nucleoside analogue RT inhibitor (NRTI) in 1987, discovery of resistance to RT inhibitors, approval of the first non-nucleoside analogue RT inhibitor (NNRTI) in 1996 and the various crystal structures of RT with and without bound substrate(s) and/or inhibitors represent only a few of the important milestones that describe the a bench-to-bedside success in the continuing effort to combat HIV-1 infection and its consequences. Nucleoside and nonnucleoside RT inhibitors remain important components in frequently used drug regimens to treat the infection. RT inhibitors also play important roles in recently validated strategies to prevent transmission of the virus. The relevance of HIV-1 RT as a drug target has simultaneously triggered interest in basic research studies aimed at providing a more detailed understanding of interactions between proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecule ligands in general terms. In light of the ever-growing knowledge on structure and function of HIV-1 RT, this enzyme serves as a valuable “model system” in efforts to develop novel experimental tools and to explain biochemical processes. This monograph is designed to provide an overview of important aspects in past and current HIV-1 RT research, with focus on mechanistic aspects and translation of knowledge into drug discovery and development. The first section includes chapters with emphasis placed on the coordination of the RT-associated DNA polymerase and ribonuclease H (RNase H) activities. The second covers mechanisms of action and future perspectives associated with NRTIs and NNRTIs, while the third section includes chapters focusing on novel strategies to target the RT enzyme. Chapters of the final part are intended to discuss mechanisms involved in HIV variability and the development of drug resistance. We hope that these contributions will stimulate interest, and encourage research aimed at the development of novel RT inhibitors. The lack of bona fide RNase H inhibitors with potent antiviral activity provides an example for challenges and opportunities in the field.

Book Synopsis Effects of Antiretroviral Drugs on the Translocation Status of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Reverse Transcriptase by : Bruno Marchand

This book was released on 2007 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The reverse transcriptase of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) is responsible for transcribing the viral single-stranded RNA genome into double-stranded DNA. Due to its vital role in the viral life cycle, it is often targeted in the treatment of HIV-1 infected patients. Inhibitors that block the reverse transcriptase enzyme were shown to interfere with nucleotide incorporation. At the end of a nucleotide incorporation cycle, the newly incorporated substrate is still located in the nucleotide binding site. In order to continue the elongation of the DNA chain, the enzyme has to move by one nucleotide relative to the nucleic acid template to free the nucleotide binding site. This movement is referred to as translocation. Translocation is extremely rapid and is therefore kinetically invisible. In order to study the mechanism of translocation, I developed site-specific footprinting assays with a resolution of a single nucleotide, which allowed us to detect the precise positioning of the reverse transcriptase on a DNA template. Using these techniques, in combination with kinetic analysis as well as other enzymatic assays, I studied the translocational status of the reverse transcriptase in various conditions, and concluded that this enzyme translocates according to a 0́−Brownian ratchet model0́+. In this model, the enzyme oscillates between pre- and post-translocated positions and the nucleotide substrate traps the post-translocational state. I identified important factors that affect the translocational equilibrium: the sequence of the nucleic acid template, the nature of the nucleotide at the 30́9 end of the primer, the presence of mismatches in the double-stranded nucleic acid substrate, the presence of nucleotides, the presence of inhibitors, the nature of these inhibitors, the presence of drug resistance conferring mutations and the temperature are parameters that have all been shown to modify the translocational equilibrium of the reverse" --
Download or read book HIV-1 Integrase written by Nouri Neamati and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-08-10 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively covers the mechanisms of action and inhibitor design for HIV-1 integrase. It serves as a resource for scientists facing challenging drug design issues and researchers in antiviral drug discovery. Despite numerous review articles and isolated book chapters dealing with HIV-1 integrase, there has not been a single source for those working to devise anti-AIDS drugs against this promising target. But this book fills that gap and offers a valuable introduction to the field for the interdisciplinary scientists who will need to work together to design drugs that target HIV-1 integrase.

Book excerpt: During the past two decades, the world scientific community has witnessed major achievements in our understanding of the pathogenesis of HIV infection of the nervous system and HIV-Associated Dementia (HAD). Despite these giant gains, nervous system involvement during AIDS remains a relentlessly progressive disease with a deadly fate in many cases. This book on NeuroAIDS provides a unique resource for both general neurologists as well as basic neuroscientists with profound interests for research on NeuroAIDS. This book has special emphasis on the mechanisms of disease development and progression of HIV-infected patients with NeuroAIDS. The contributors have provided the readers with comprehensive reviews on clinical manifestations of HAD, mechanisms of HIV entry into the central nervous system, the role of cytokines and chemokines in pathogenesis of NeuroAIDS, drug abuse and NeuroAIDS, virus load in HAD, allostasis in HIV and AIDS, stroke in AIDS patients, and neuroimaging of HIV infection of the central nervous system. In addition, there are chapters on Varicella Zoster virus infection of HIV-seropositive and AIDS patients, as well as the molecular basis for opioids and AIDS virus interactions.
