## Abstract

The present invention relates to a compound comprising of the nucleotide sequence UAA or TAA and a binding site for the covalent attachment of leucine (Leu), wherein said compound is recognized by a ribosome, for use in medicine.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method of treating or ameliorating an infection with HIV virus, with SIV virus, with an Alphavirus and/or AIDS in a subject, said method comprising administering a tRNALeu(UAA) which
(a) differs from any human wild-type tRNALeu(UAA), by at least one up to ten mutations of the base sequence in a stem region of the tRNA, wherein each of said mutations is a substitution or deletion; and/or
(b) comprises at least one modification of a ribose and/or of a phosphate, wherein said modification is selected from 2′-O-methyl, 2′-deoxy, 2′-fluoro, thiophosphate, LNA, and PNA.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein said subject is a human.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the tRNALeu(UAA), consists of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2.
