===Mechanism of Action===
[[Retroviral Integrase]] is produced by the HIV retrovirus, enabling [[HIV]] to integrate its genetic material into the [[DNA]] of the infected cell. This integration step effectively transforms the infected cell into a permanent carrier of the viral genome, allowing the virus to persist and proliferate nearly without limit.<ref>PMID:17107277</ref> HIV retroviral integrase forms "intasomes" when it <scene name='MK-2048/Integrase/1'>complexes with viral DNA</scene>. The integrase domains interact extensively with the viral DNA, <scene name='MK-2048/Integrase_b/1'>binding the nucleotide chains</scene> precisely within an active site, in close proximity to the predicted target DNA into which the viral DNA will be inserted. MK-2048 binds with great specificity to the HIV integrase active site. It orients itself in such a way as to displace the reactive viral DNA end from the active site almost completely. <scene name='MK-2048/Integrase_ba/2'>MK-2048 binds</scene> to residues Asp 128, Asp 185, & Glu 221 via strong interactions with magnesium ions and has extensive π-stacking interactions with the final two nucleotide rings on one viral DNA strand. This disruption prevents the viral DNA from interacting with the target DNA, preventing integration and HIV proliferation.<ref>doi: 10.1038/nature08784</ref>
