Abstract

HIV-1 capsid (CA) and human cyclophilin A (CypA) play important roles in HIV-1 assembly and disassembly processes, which are critical in HIV-1 replication. Based on the discovery of thiourea derivatives targeting both of the two proteins and indicating effective inhibitory activities in our group, we designed and synthesized a new class of thiourea derivatives. Their abilities to bind to capsid and cyclophilin A were determined by ultraviolet ...
