pubmed:abstractText |
Replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) requires specific interactions of Tat protein with the transactivation responsive region (TAR) RNA, a 59-base stem-loop structure located at the 5'-end of all HIV mRNAs. Here we report that two TAR RNA-binding peptidomimetics, oligourea and oligocarbamate, inhibit transcriptional activation by Tat protein in human cells with an IC50 of approximately 0.5 and 1 microM, respectively. Peptidomimetics that can target specific RNA structures provide novel molecules that can be used to control cellular processes involving protein-RNA interactions in vivo.
