Fusion Inhibitors MOA?
Fusion Inhibitors work outside the cell to prevent HIV from entering the CD4 cell by blocking fusion of the outer membrane of the virus with the cell membrane.
NRTI's MOA?
Act as false substrate for reverse transcriptase causing chain termination. The DNA is incomplete therefore no further HIV replication occurs.
NNRTI's MOA?
Binds to reverse transcriptase and inhibits the enzyme. Prevent conversion from RNA to DNA (Act at same location as NRTI's, but use completely different MOA).
PI's MOA?
Prevent HIV from being successfully assembled and released from the infected CD4 cell.
Fussion Inhibitors
Fuzeon (enfuvirtide) binds to GP41 and stops virus from entering CD4 cell
