Journal ArticleDOI

First glimpses at structure-function relationships of the nucleocapsid protein of retroviruses.

TL;DR: The 3-D structures of HIV-1 and MoMuLV NC proteins, deduced from NMR studies, are characterized by a central globular domain with one (MoMuLV) or two (HIV-1) zinc fingers, which should facilitate a rational approach of new anti-HIV therapies based on inhibition of NC protein functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

NCp7 Activates HIV-1Lai RNA Dimerization by Converting a Transient Loop-Loop Complex into a Stable Dimer

TL;DR: The results show that the nucleocapsid protein NCp7 activates RNA dimerization very likely through interaction with the kissing complex and converts it into a stable dimer, and only occurs if the 240-280 stem-loop structure is present in HIV-1Lai RNA molecules and contains the autocomplementary G257CGCGC262 sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Production and neurotropism of lentivirus vectors pseudotyped with lyssavirus envelope glycoproteins.

TL;DR: Although coating HIV-1 particles with rabdhovirus envelope glycoproteins enables them to enter neuronal cells efficiently, pseudotyping is not sufficient to confer the powerful neurotropism of lyssaviruses to lentivirus vectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the viral nucleocapsid protein in anti-HIV-1 therapy.

TL;DR: New classes of molecules competing with NC or its viral nucleic acid and enzyme partners are reviewed here.
