Mechanism  The mechanism of action for peptides E through H likely involves their amphipathic and cyclic nature, which enables them to interact with both viral and host cell components to inhibit HIV-1 infection. These peptides may target the HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins, such as gp120 and gp41, which are critical for viral entry into host cells. By binding to gp120, they could block its interaction with the CD4 receptor or CCR5/CXCR4 co-receptors, preventing viral attachment. Additionally, interference with gp41 could disrupt the membrane fusion process required for viral entry. Their structural properties also suggest potential interactions with the host cell membrane, altering its lipid microdomains and impeding the fusion process. Furthermore, these peptides might inhibit the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase enzyme, blocking viral RNA to DNA transcription, or interact with viral assembly proteins to disrupt the formation of infectious virions. The exact mechanism for each peptide requires further investigation, including binding studies and structural analyses, to elucidate their precise targets and pathways of action.
