Abstract:Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Integrase or HIV-1 integrase (IN)
is a 288 amino acid protein that incorporates the retrotranscribed viral DNA into the
host chromosomal DNA. Over the past 30 years, large number of derivatives have
been evaluated for their inhibitory potential against IN. There is vast literature available
which need to be collated to help scientists plan the future drug design. This review
discusses the reports of past 25 years on analogs of quinoline, coumarin and
other related heterocycles, which exhibit low micromolar inhibitory potency against
IN.
