Crystal structure of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) in complex with DHBNH, an RNASE H inhibitor

Overview

The rapid emergence of drug-resistant variants of human immunodeficiency, virus, type 1 (HIV-1), has limited the efficacy of anti-acquired immune, deficiency syndrome (AIDS) treatments, and new lead compounds that target, novel binding sites are needed. We have determined the 3.15 A resolution, crystal structure of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) complexed with, dihydroxy benzoyl naphthyl hydrazone (DHBNH), an HIV-1 RT RNase H (RNH), inhibitor (RNHI). DHBNH is effective against a variety of drug-resistant, HIV-1 RT mutants. While DHBNH has little effect on most aspects of, RT-catalyzed DNA synthesis, at relatively high concentrations it does, inhibit the initiation of RNA-primed DNA synthesis. Although primarily an, RNHI, DHBNH binds >50 A away from the RNH active site, at a novel site, near both the polymerase active site and the non-nucleoside RT inhibitor, (NNRTI) binding pocket. When DHBNH binds, both Tyr181 and Tyr188 remain in, the conformations seen in unliganded HIV-1 RT. DHBNH interacts with, conserved residues (Asp186, Trp229) and has substantial interactions with, the backbones of several less well-conserved residues. On the basis of, this structure, we designed substituted DHBNH derivatives that interact, with the NNRTI-binding pocket. These compounds inhibit both the polymerase, and RNH activities of RT.
