The invention further relates to the use of said compounds as a medicine and in the manufacture of a medicament useful for the treatment of subjects suffering from HIV infection, as well as for treatment of other viral, retroviral or lentiviral infections and to the treatment of animals suffering from FIV, viral, retroviral or lentiviral infections.

Abstract: In a study of HIV-1 integrase (IN) complexes derived from nuclei of human cells stably expressing the viral protein from a synthetic gene it was demonstrated that in the nuclear extracts IN exists as part of a large distinct complex with apparent Stokes radius of 61 ?, which dissociates upon dilution yielding a core molecule of 41 ?. The IN complexes were isolated from cells expressing FLAG-tagged IN. By present invention it was demonstrated that the 41 ? core is tetramer of IN, whereas 61 ? molecules are composed of IN tetramers associated with a cellular protein with an apparent molecular weight of 76 kDa. This integrase interacting protein (Inip76) was found to be identical to LEDGF/DFS70/p75 a protein implicated in regulation of gene expression and cellular stress-response. HIV-1 IN and Inip76 co-localized in the nuclei of human cells stably expressing IN. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated by present invention that recombinant Inip76 strongly promoted strand-transfer activity of HIV-1 IN in vitro.
