Bioactivity | Tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) is a competitive DNA polymerases inhibitor (with respect to dATP) and a substrate of HIV type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT)[1]. |
Target | DNA polymerases; HIV-1 reverse transcriptase |
Invitro | Tenofovir diphosphate acts as an inhibitor of DNA pol. Tenofovir-diphosphate is a weak inhibitor of DNA polymerases (pol) α, δ, and ɛ, with values for the Ki for PMPApp (PMPAppKi) relative to the Km for dATP (dATPKm) of 10.2, 10.2, and 15.6, respectively[1]. |
