Target intelligence / Profile preview

Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 pol Gene (HIV-1 pol)

Target
HIV-1 pol
Molecular classification
Gene, Viral Gene
01

Overview

The HIV-1 pol gene encodes the viral enzymes protease (PR), reverse transcriptase (RT), and integrase (IN), which are essential for viral replication. These enzymes are initially synthesized as part of the Gag-Pol polyprotein and are critical targets for antiretroviral therapies.
