Nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (nRTIs) remain a mainstay of antiretroviral chemotherapy. At this writing, five members of this class of drugs have been approved by the FDA, and a six (abacavir, 1592U89) is likely to be approved within the next few months. The mechanism of action common to this class of agents involves the incorporation of triphosphate metabolites into viral DNA during the process of reverse transcription.
