Pyrimidinol carboxylic acids were designed as inhibitors of HIV-1 RNase H function. These molecules can coordinate to two divalent metal ions in the RNase H active site. Inhibition of enzymatic activity was measured in a biochemical assay, but no antiviral effect was observed. Binding wits demonstrated via a solid state structure of the isolated p15-Ec domain of HIV-1 RT showing inhibitor and two Mn(II) ions bound to the RNase H active site.
