Potential For Creating Less Toxic Anti-HIV Drugs Following Discovery Of Enzyme Structure

October 18, 2009 by admin 

By discovering the atomic structure of a key human enzyme, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have pointed the way toward designing anti-HIV drugs with far less toxic side effects. Their work was published this week in Cell. “Many anti-HIV drugs are designed to stop the process of DNA replication,” says Dr. Whitney Yin, assistant professor of chemistry and biochemistry.
