Application

Application Comment Organism
drug development viruses deficient in RNase H activity are non-infectious making RNase H an interesting target for anti-HIV inhibitors Human immunodeficiency virus 1

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
crystal structures of full-length HIV-1 reverse transcriptase with a DNA/DNA or RNA/DNA substrate show a distance of about 60 A between the polymerase active site and the RNase H active site Human immunodeficiency virus 1

Human immunodeficiency virus 1

2,7-dihydroxy-4-isopropylcyclohepta-2,4,6-trienone 2,7-dihydroxy-4-1(methylethyl)-2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one, or beta-thujaplicinol, is not candidate therapeutics because it is cytotoxic Human immunodeficiency virus 1
3,4-dihydroxy-N'-[(E)-(2-methoxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylidene]benzohydrazide specific inhibitor of reverse transcriptase RNase H activity (IC50 value is about 0.5 microM) and has relatively limited activity against the DNA polymerase activity of reverse transcriptase. It is non-cytotoxic and inhibits the replication of a variety of drug-resistant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase mutants Human immunodeficiency virus 1
4-[5-benzoylamino) thien-2-yl]-2,4-dioxobutanoic acid inhibits RNase H by binding to the active site and chelating the essential Mg2+ Human immunodeficiency virus 1
5-chloro-2-hydroxyisoquinoline-1,3(2H,4H-dione) is not candidate therapeutics because it is cytotoxic Human immunodeficiency virus 1
BPH218 potent inhibitor of ATP-mediated phosphorolytic excision of 3'-terminal zidovudine 5'-monophosphate (in vitro IC50 value is about 2 microM) Human immunodeficiency virus 1
N-(4-tert-butylbenzoyl)-2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde hydrazone reasonable potency. Bifunctional inhibitor of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, it inhibits both the reverse transcriptase DNA polymerase and RNase H activities of the enzyme with similar potency (IC50 is about 3 microM) Human immunodeficiency virus 1
[(4-chlorophenyl) hydrazono] propanedioic acid inhibits the RNase H of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase with potency similar to that of N-(4-tert-butylbenzoyl)-2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde hydrazone. It is specific for RNase H and does not inhibit the DNA polymerase activity of reverse transcriptase. Inhibits RNase H by binding to the active site and chelating the essential Mg2+ Human immunodeficiency virus 1

Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
More reverse transcriptase is a heterodimer. The larger subunit, p66, contains the active sites for both of the enzymatic activities of reverse transcriptase (polymerase and RNase H), the smaller subunit has a structural role Human immunodeficiency virus 1
