AbstractWe designed a new computer program (MIMETIC), which generates a series of peptides for interaction with a target peptide sequence. The genetic algorithm employed ranks the sequences obtained from one generation to the next by “goodness of fit” to the target. MIMETIC designed recognition peptides to various regions of HIV‐1 reverse transcriptase. Among ten peptide candidates synthesized, three inhibited reverse transcription in vitro. TLMA2993 and PSTW1594 both targeted the connection domain of reverse transcriptase and ESLA2340 targeted the thumb domain.

The reactions in benzene of methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl perchlorates with N,N-dimethylanilines, to yield precipitates of the quaternary anilinium perchlorate, proceed with second-order kinetics and exhibit a large negative entropy of activation. At 25.0/sup 0/C, Hammett rho values of -3.05, -2.86, and -2.78, respectively, indicate appreciable bonding to the nitrogen within the transition state. In
