  1. Abstract:

    Computer-aided drug design (CADD) methodologies have made great advances and contributed significantly to the discovery and/or optimization of many clinically used drugs in recent years. CADD tools have likewise been applied to the discovery of inhibitors of HIV-1 integrase, a difficult and worthwhile target for the development of efficient anti-HIV drugs. This article reviews the application of CADD tools, including pharmacophore search, quantitative structure activity relationships, model building of integrase complexed with viral DNA and quantum-chemical studies in the discovery of HIV-1 integrase inhibitors. Different structurally diverse integrase inhibitors have been identified by, or with significant help from, various CADD tools.
