title: Inhibition of HIV-1 nuclear import via schiff base formation with arylene bis(methylketone) compounds.
abstract: Arylene bis(methylketone) compounds specifically block nuclear translocation of the HIV-1 pre-integration complex by forming Schiff-base adducts with contiguous lysines within nuclear localization signal.
