The progress in the development of HIV inhibitors targeting protein-protein interactions / 药学学报

ABSTRACT

Protein-protein interaction (PPI) plays an important role in many steps of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) life cycle. Targeting these protein-protein interactions, especially the interaction between the virus with host cells, can provide new insights into the development of HIV inhibitors with novel mechanisms of action. Herein, we review the latest discoveries of PPI inhibitors based on the mechanisms of action of various protein-protein interactions with specific research examples.
