Abstract

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Rev protein facilitates the export of viral RNA from nucleus to cytoplasm, which is a key step in HIV-1 pathogenesis and transmission. In this study, we have screened a commercial library and identified the hit compound 1 bearing a benzenesulfonamide quinoline scaffold that inhibited Rev activity and HIV-1 infectivity. Compounds bearing this scaffold were synthesized and their SAR was studied. We identified compound 20 with low toxicity and potent activity to inhibit HIV-1 replication by affecting Rev function.
