Sb. Mekapati et al., Quantitative structure-activity relationship of some HIV-1 protease inhibitors: A Fujita-Ban type analysis, J ENZ INHIB, 16(3), 2001, pp. 185-197
A Fujita-Ban type analysis has been made on a few series of HIV-1 (human im
munodeficiency virus of type 1) protease inhibitors and the activity contri
butions of various substituents obtained. From these activity contributions
, a compound is predicted that may have better activity than ritonavir, pre
sently prescribed for the treatment of patients suffering from HIV-1. A few
other compounds are also suggested.
