Summary.

The crystal structures of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) and some of its inhibitor complexes have been compared quantitatively with respect to backbone and side chain dihedral angles. Furthermore distances between inhibitor molecules and surrounding amino acids have been analyzed in detail. The calculation of the conformation for all structures allows us to determine quantitative structural changes of HIV-1 RT on binding to NNIs or to RNA/DNA.
