sequence and structural alignments of HTLV-1 protease and HIV-1 protease. 95% of ligand recognizing active site amino acids are common in both receptors, the approved drugs of HIV proteases are unable to function as HTLV-1 protease inhibitors. The reported amino acid Asp30 from HIV-1 proease is substituted as Met37 in HTLV protease. Met37 is playing the vital role in ejection of HIV protease inhibitors from the binding pocket of HTLV protease | Human T-cell leukemia virus type I |
