HIV Protease

HIV protease, a homodimeric aspartyl protease, is crucial for the viral life-cycle, cleaving proviral polyproteins, hence creating mature protein components that are required for the formation of an infectious virus. HIV protease cleaves newly synthesized polyproteins at the appropriate places to create the mature protein components of an infectious HIV virion. HIV protease is a critical drug target in designing anti-retroviral drugs to treat HIV/AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome).

HIV-1 protease permits viral maturation by processing the Gag and Gag-Pro-Pol polyproteins. It recognizes and cleaves more than 12 different substrates leading to viral maturation. Similar to that of HIV-1, HIV-2 protease is also a homodimeric aspartyl enzyme that plays a vital role in the HIV life-cycle through processing of Gag and Gag-Pro-Pol precursor polyproteins leading to viral maturation.

    Fosamprenavir Calcium Salt (Standard)
    Inhibitor
    Fosamprenavir Calcium Salt (GW433908G) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Fosamprenavir Calcium Salt (HY-17431R). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Fosamprenavir Calcium Salt (GW433908G) is an orally active inhibitor targeting HIV-1 protease and is a prodrug of Amprenavir (HY-17430). Fosamprenavir Calcium Salt is hydrolyzed into Amprenavir (VX-478) by cell phosphatases in the intestinal epithelium. Amprenavir binds to the active site of HIV-1 protease, preventing the processing of viral gag and gag-pol polyprotein precursors, thereby inhibiting the formation of mature infectious virus particles and exerting anti-HIV-1 infection activity. Fosamprenavir Calcium Salt can be used for the study of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection.
