Abstract
Crystal structures of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) complexed with a range of chemically diverse non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNIs) have shown a single pocket in which the inhibitors bind and details of the inhibitor-protein interactions. To delineate the structural requirements for an effective inhibitor, we have determined the structures of three closely related NNIs which vary widely in their potencies. Crystal structures of HIV-1 RT complexed with two very potent inhibitors, MKC-442 and TNK-651, at 2.55 angstroms resolution complement our previous analysis of the complex with the less effective inhibitor, HEPT. These structures reveal conformational changes which correlate with changes in potency. We suggest that a major determinant of increased potency in the analogues of HEPT is an improved interaction between residue Tyr181 in the protein and the 6-benzyl ring of the inhibitors which stabilizes the structure of the complex. This arises through a conformational switching of the protein structure triggered by the steric bulk of the 5-substituent of the inhibitor pyrimidine ring.

Figure 5. Ribbon diagram of the form E RT/Cl-TIBO complex using colour coding to illustrate the structural variation from the unliganded form E RT structure. Cl-TIBO is shown as a space-filling model. The form E RT/Cl-TIBO model was produced by a nine-domain rigid-body refinement of the form F model on to the partial data set of form E. Hence, some artifactual variation can be detected near the domain boundaries (light blue). Figure 5.
