Abstract
Crystal structures of the native HIV-1 proteinase and an A71TN82A mutant have been solved in complexes with a symmetric aminodiol inhibitor, BMS-182193. Some of the conformational differences between these two complexes can be traced to their non-isomorphous crystal forms, but numerous rearrangements due to mutations are clearly visible.The V82A mutation creates more space at the periphery of the active site cleft, allowing distal parts of the inhibitor to move more freely, whereas the non-active-site mutation A71T stabilizes the enzyme backbone. The role of mutations in eliciting drug resistance is discussed.
