[How proviral DNA is integrated into the host cell DNA and how this process can be inhibited].

Abstract:

:The HIV replication cycle passes through a stage of integrating proviral DNA into the cell's DNA. In this process, the viral enzyme, integrase, catalyses two reactions. The first reaction, which seems to occur in the cytoplasm, involves 3'-end processing, in which two nucleotides are removed from the 3' ends of the viral DNA by integrase. The second reaction, which occurs in the nucleus, involves the strand transfer reaction, catalyzed by integrase, in which the recessed 3' ends of the viral DNA are joined to the protruding 5' ends in the target DNA. Although this activity has not yet been completely defined and the structure of the active form of integrase, probably a tetramer, has not been resolved, drugs of the diketoacid (DKA) family have been found. These drugs are highly potent inhibitors of the second phase, the strand transfer reaction. Through a series of optimizations, a highly effective molecule for clinical use, raltegravir, has been achieved. The present article provides a summary of basic knowledge on integrase, as well as the activity and the modes of inhibition of this enzyme. Also discussed is the reduced, but nevertheless real, development of resistance to raltegravir, requiring second-generation integrase inhibitors to be designed.

    abstract::Telaprevir is an extremely potent antiviral drug. However, as with other direct-acting antiviral agents against the hepatitis C virus (HCV), this potency can be compromised by the rapid emergence of resistance mutations.
