Figure 6

Inhibitory activity of purified protease on HIV-1 RT activity. Results represent mean ± SD ( 𝑛 = 3 ). The IC50 value toward HIV-1 RT was 1 estimated to be 8.3 μM. Different letters (a, b, c, etc.) next to the data points indicate statistically significant difference ( 𝑃 < 0 . 0 5 ) when the data are analyzed by analysis of variance followed by Duncan’s multiple range test.
