Abstract
Two groups of the antiviral agents: 1) adamantane- and norbornen-containing compounds with in-built cholesterol to potentiate the membranotropic properties and 2) synthetic matrix protein peptides (peptides A and B) were found to have effects on HIV replication. The agents of the former group produced antiviral activity only when added in combination with the virus. Peptide A (matrix protein 43-60 amino acids) inhibited viral replication when added in both the early and late periods. Fluorescein-labeled peptide A was detectable in the cytoplasm and nucleus (although adsorption of a portion of the peptides cannot be excluded onto the cell surface). Peptide A was shown to inhibit Gag precursor p55 transport from the nuclei to the plasma membrane, the site of virus assembly. Peptide B had no antiviral activity.
