• reported for HIV integrase. MD simulations that were performed with the holo-structure of HIV integrase bound to a known ligand showed signs of a novel binding pocket opening in close proximity to its active site [183]. RCS ligand docking showed that this binding site is a possible binding pocket for drug

• important pyrimidine-based anti-HIV drug which was launched by Merck in 2008 [89]. Structurally, this HIV-integrase inhibitor consists of a fully substituted pyrimidone core flanked by an oxadiazole ring as well as an additional terminal para-fluorobenzyl unit. The central pyrimidone core was accessed in a
