&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;Mechanism of Action:&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;The drug inhibits the activity of HIV-1 integrase, which impedes the insertion of HIV-1 DNA into the host cell genome. Integrase is a vital enzyme that catalyzes two, which must occur for viral DNA insertion into the host DNA. Primarily, it removes two deoxynucleotides from the 3 ends of the viral DNA. When the reaction is complete, the enzyme is also responsible for covalently binding viral DNA to that of the host cell.&lt;br /&gt;For more information, please&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.antimicrobe.org/d98.asp&quot;&gt;Click&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
