HIV-1 reverse transcription is achieved in the newly infected cell before viral DNA (vDNA) nuclear import. Reverse transcriptase (RT) has previously been shown to function as a molecular motor, dismantling the nucleocapsid complex that... more
HIV integrase is a 32 kDa protein produced from the C-terminal portion of the Pol gene product, and is an attractive target for new anti-HIV drugs. Integrase is an enzyme produced by a retrovirus (such as HIV) that enables its genetic... more
Rotifers of class Bdelloidea, a group of aquatic invertebrates in which males and meiosis have never been documented, are also unusual in their lack of multicopy LINE-like and gypsy-like retrotransposons, groups inhabiting the genomes of... more
The activity of the Integrase (Int) protein en- coded by coliphage HK022 was tested in a human cell culture. Plasmids were constructed as substrates that carry the sites of the integration reaction (attP and attB) or the sites of excision... more
A total of 62 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates including 29 imipenem resistant, 23 imipenem susceptible and 10 environmental isolates were analyzed based on integron and integron gene cassette array (I-GCA) PCR and DNA sequences. Two... more
Integrase (IN) is one of the three human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) enzymes essential for effective viral replication. S-1360 is a potent and selective inhibitor of HIV-1 IN. In this work, we have carried out molecular dynamics... more
A novel compound inhibiting HIV-1 integrase has been identified by means of virtual screening techniques. A small family of structurally related molecules has been synthesized and biologically evaluated with some of the compounds... more
Twenty-two quinazoline derivatives have been synthesised and examined for their anti-tumour activity against three tumour cell lines, namely human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7), human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa) and human hepatoma... more
