Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Emergence of drug resistant virus is one of the serious medical issues. Human immune deficiency virus protease (HIVPR) derived from A17 virus strain exhibits the complicated characteristics in decreasing affinity to inhibitors of Ritonavir (RTV), Lopinavir (LPV). In this study, interactions of protease with substrates and inhibitors were investigated by i) high resolution X-ray and neutron crystallography, and ii) isothermal titration calorimetry to reveal molecular mechanism in drug resistance of a virus Acid protease, HIVPR. The designed HIV-PR will be useful to design the new effective inhibitors and medicines.
