Journal ArticleDOI

Specific recognition and accelerated uncoating of retroviral capsids by the TRIM5α restriction factor

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that TRIM5alpha variants from Old World monkeys specifically associate with the HIV type 1 (HIV-1) capsid and that this interaction depends on the TRIM 5alpha B30.2 domain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retrovirus Restriction by TRIM5α Variants from Old World and New World Primates

TL;DR: Variation in TRIM5α proteins among primate species accounts for the observed patterns of postentry restrictions in cells from these animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

The B30.2(SPRY) Domain of the Retroviral Restriction Factor TRIM5α Exhibits Lineage-Specific Length and Sequence Variation in Primates

TL;DR: The results suggest that occasional, complex changes were incorporated into the TRIM5α B30.2 domain at discrete time points during the evolution of primates, based on the appearance of particular endogenous retroviruses in primate genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Suppression of hepatitis B virus DNA accumulation in chronically infected cells using a bacterial CRISPR/Cas RNA-guided DNA endonuclease.

TL;DR: Together, these data provide proof of principle for the hypothesis that CRISPR/Cas systems have the potential to serve as effective tools for the depletion of the cccDNA pool in chronically HBV infected individuals.
