These results suggest that the optimal size of the β7-β8 loop in the second subunit of the HIV-1 RT dimer is crucial for opening the polymerase cleft of the p66 subunit.
Previously, we showed that KRC/ZAS-C bound DNA as dimers, tetramers, and multiple of tetramers [ 28 ] . The significant difference in the gel mobility between complex C and complex C' suggested that they were likely composed of KRC/ZAS-C dimer and tetramer, respectively.
We quantified the ratio of intensity of the monomer band to the dimer band.
This difference in tertiary structures between the two subunits makes the dimer asymmetric.
It has been suggested that the stability of the dimer is related to the buried surface area between the two subunits [ 11 12 ] . In the nevirapine-bound HIV-1 RT crystal structure, the total contact surface area between the subunits is approximately ~4600 Å 2. The two major contact regions between the subunits which provide it stability are their connection subdomains and the thumb of p51 and RNase H domain of p66.
