An 'active analog' approach to receptor mapping was used to identify a pharmacophore for a set of thymidine nucleoside analog inhibitors of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. The preliminary results indicate that the O2, O4', and O5' atoms are capable of adopting a unique pharmacophoric pattern which may be the key to their recognition by reverse transcriptase.
