“…Two classes of drugs, NRTIs and NNRTIs, have been reported as inhibitors of RT [26,27,28,29,30,31]. NRTIs act as DNA chain terminators, while NNRTIs bind to a hydrophobic pocket close to the RT active site and inhibit the enzyme activity by mediating allosteric changes in the RT conformation, thus causing a distortion in the arrangement of the catalytic active site aspartyl residues [32,33,34,35,36,37].…”
