Abstract

Four compounds are docked to a pentameric bundle representing the transmembrane part of the Vpu protein from HIV-1. Employing the docking algorithm FlexX, their free energy of binding is estimated leading to the conclusion that potential drug candidates need to form H-bonds either with neighbouring or with n + 2 helices at the site of the serines within the bundle.
