Conformation and local environment of nucleotides bound to HIV type 1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) in the ground state.
Nuclear Overhauser effect experiments were used to characterize the protein environment and conformations of dTTP, dATP and AZTTP bound to HIV-RT in the ground state. The results show the initial binding sites for the nucleotides overlap but are not completely coincident. All of the bound nucleotides assume the same anti C4'-exo conformation.
