We designed, synthesized and tested novel 2,6-disubstituted-anthraquinones able to bind dynamic secondary structures of nucleic acids, such as TAR RNA and its reverse transcript cTAR, leading to inhibition of the chaperone activities of the nucleocapsid NCp7, a highly conserved viral protein implied in crucial steps of HIV-1 replication.

Abstract
We designed, synthesized and tested novel 2,6-disubstituted-anthraquinones able to bind dynamic secondary structures of nucleic acids, such as TAR RNA and its reverse transcript cTAR, leading to inhibition of the chaperone activities of the nucleocapsid NCp7, a highly conserved viral protein implied in crucial steps of HIV-1 replication.
