The evaluation of a comprehensive α-helix mimetic library for binding the gp41 NHR hydrophobic pocket recognizing an intramolecular CHR α-helix provided a detailed depiction of structural features required for binding and led to the discovery of small molecule inhibitors (K(i) 0.6-1.3 μM) that not only match or exceed the potency of those disclosed over the past decade, but that also exhibit effective activity in a cell-cell fusion assay (IC(50) 5-8 μM).
对一个全面的α-螺旋模拟文库进行评估,以结合 gp41 NHR 疏水性口袋识别分子内 CHR α-螺旋,提供了对结合所需结构特征的详细描述,并导致发现了小分子抑制剂(Ki 为 0.6-1.3 μM),这些抑制剂不仅与过去十年中披露的那些具有相同或更高的效力,而且在细胞-细胞融合测定中也具有有效的活性(IC50 为 5-8 μM)。
