Early in the effort to develop a drug to treat HIV infection, researchers found that the virus had one potentially important "weak link in its life cycle. During the process of replication, the virus produces a very long polypeptide chain made of thousands of amino acids. This chain is similar to a protein except that it is much larger than a typical protein, so it is sometimes called a superprotein or a polyprotein. It is a polypeptide that contains within itself a number of individual proteins that the virus needs later in its replication. Some of those proteins are used to make the structural components of the cell, while others are used to make the cell s "working parts," nucleic acids and enzymes.

If St. John s wort can alter levels of cyclosporin in the blood, might it not also interfere with the action of other medications Recent research indicates that it can. Not surprisingly, the affected drugs are those that, like cyclosporin, are also metabolized by cytochrome enzymes. Protease inhibitors, used in the treatment of hiv infections, are a prime example. Because of the popularity of St. John s wort as an antidepressant and the incidence of depression in patients diagnosed with HIV infections, researchers at the U.S. National Institutes of Health decided to investigate the consequences of using the herbal remedy and the protease inhibitor indinavir concurrently. Doctors prescribe indinavir to prevent the hiv virus...

X-ray crystallography is a powerful technique. There are no theoretical limits to the size of the molecules or complexes to be studied, although a practical limit is imposed by the necessity of obtaining crystals of sufficient quality. The structure determination of ribosomal particles is undoubtedly one of the most stunning achievements of protein crystallography, to date, and is an invaluable contribution to anti-infective research.
