Journal ArticleDOI
Positive selection of primate TRIM5α identifies a critical species-specific retroviral restriction domain
TL;DR: This study finds strong evidence for ancient positive selection in the primate TRIM5alpha gene and shows that this patch is generally essential for retroviral restriction and is responsible for most of the species-specific antiretroviral restriction activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 vpr gene prevents cell proliferation during chronic infection.
TL;DR: It is shown that although Vpr has no effect on the initial cytopathic effect of HIV-1, viruses that contain an intact vPR gene are unable to establish a chronic infection of T cells, however, virus with a mutated vpr gene can readily establish such long-term cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI
HIV-1 infection requires a functional integrase NLS.
Michèle Bouyac-Bertoia,Jeffrey D. Dvorin,Ron A. M. Fouchier,Ron A. M. Fouchier,Yonchu Jenkins,Barbara E. Meyer,Lily I. Wu,Michael Emerman,Michael H. Malim +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that interactions between uncoated viral nucleoprotein complexes and the host cell nuclear import machinery are critical for HIV-1 infection of all cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indicator Cell Lines for Detection of Primary Strains of Human and Simian Immunodeficiency Viruses
Marie A. Vodicka,Wei Chun Goh,Lily I. Wu,M E Rogel,Steven R. Bartz,Vicki L. Schweickart,Carol J. Raport,Michael Emerman +7 more
TL;DR: Several beta-galactosidase-based HIV indicator cell lines are modified to express CCR5 and/or CXCR4 to detect all primary isolates tested using one or both of these cell lines, but there is large variation in the absolute viral infectivity among primary strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
