Title: The design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel substituted purines as HIV-1 Tat-TAR inhibitors.
Authors: Yuan D, He M, Pang R, Lin SS, Li Z, Yang M.
Abstract: A series of novel substituted purines containing a side chain with a terminal amino or guanidyl group were designed and synthesized as HIV-1 Tat-TAR inhibitors. All the compounds could effectively block the TAR transactivation in human 293T cells with the CAT expression percentage ranging from 34.4% to 65.7% and showed high antiviral effects with low cytotoxicities in inhibiting the formation of SIV-induced syncytium in CEM174 cells. Molecular modeling studies by Auto-dock process suggest that the compounds bind to TAR RNA in two different modes.
