Here we present new derivatives of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors with a C20 fullerene. The computational chemistry methods used in this study evaluate affinity of designed compounds towards the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) binding site and select the most active ones. The best of the designed compounds have superior or similar affinity to RT active site in comparison to most active test compounds, including drugs used in anti-HIV therapy.
