Reverse Transcriptase
Reverse transcriptases (RTs) are enzyme used to generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template, a process termed reverse transcription. Reverse transcriptases (RTs) use an RNA template and a short primer complementary to the 3' end of the RNA to direct the synthesis of the first strand cDNA.
Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) block reverse transcriptase (an HIV enzyme). Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) bind to and block HIV reverse transcriptase. HIV uses reverse transcriptase to convert its RNA into DNA (reverse transcription). Blocking reverse transcriptase and reverse transcription prevents HIV from replicating.

INDOPY-1
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-182474CAS No.: 352548-47-1Synonyms: Indolopyridone-1INDOPY-1 (Indolopyridone-1) is a selective, reversible, and competitive HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitor. INDOPY-1 reversibly binds to the active site of reverse transcriptase. INDOPY-1 inhibits DNA synthesis. INDOPY-1 exhibits antiviral activity against various retroviruses, including HIV-1 IIIB, HIV-1 HXB2 K103N Y181C, HIV-2 ROD, and SIV Mac251. INDOPY-1 can be used in the research of immunodeficiency virus infection.

Azvudine (Standard)
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-19314RCAS No.: 1011529-10-4Synonyms: RO-0622 (Standard); FNC (Standard)Azvudine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Azvudine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Azvudine (RO-0622) is a potent nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), with antiviral activity on HIV, HBV and HCV. Azvudine exerts highly potent inhibition on HIV-1 (EC50s ranging from 0.03 to 6.92 nM) and HIV-2 (EC50s ranging from 0.018 to 0.025 nM). Azvudine inhibits NRTI-resistant viral strains. Azvudine is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.
