“…Based on the fact that peptides derived from C-HR and N-HR regions of gp41 may serve as potent intibitors of HIV entry, intense research effort has been made for the rational design of different inhibitors based on these sequences. This also includes modifications such as incorporation of nonnatural and D-form amino acids (C34M3, [126]), synthesis of chimeric peptides (T1249, [123]) and even construction of fatty acid C-HR based conjugates (DP, [127]). For a detailed list, refer to the review by Naider and Anglister [121].…”
