pubmed:abstractText |
A synthetic peptide, corresponding to the sequence (637-666) of the HIV-1 glycoprotein gp41, inhibited the replication of an array of HIV-1 strains. The peptide (637-666) selectively binds to the fusion domain at the N-terminus of gp41, suggesting that inhibition of HIV-1 infection is caused by blocking fusion of HIV-1 with cells or of infected cells with uninfected cells. Since this peptide has antiviral activity against both homologous and heterologous HIV-1 isolates and has no detectable cytotoxicity, it offers a novel approach to chemotherapy and prophylaxis of AIDS.
