Complex interactions of HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein with oligonucleotides

The HIV-1 nucleocapsid (NC) protein is a small, basic protein containing two retroviral zinc fingers. It is a highly active nucleic acid chaperone; because of this activity, it plays a crucial role in virus replication as a cofactor during reverse transcription, and is probably important in other steps of the replication cycle as well. We previously reported that NC binds with high-affinity to ...

Investigating the Cellular Distribution and Interactions of HIV-1 Nucleocapsid Protein by Quantitative Fluorescence Microscopy

The nucleocapsid protein (NCp7) of the Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a small basic protein containing two zinc fingers. About 2000 NCp7 molecules coat the genomic RNA in the HIV-1 virion. After infection of a target cell, the viral core enters into the cytoplasm, where NCp7 chaperones the reverse transcription of the genomic RNA into the proviral DNA. As a consequence of their ...

Unfolding of DNA quadruplexes induced by HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein

The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 nucleocapsid protein (NC) is a nucleic acid chaperone that catalyzes the rearrangement of nucleic acids into their thermodynamically most stable structures. In the present study, a combination of optical and thermodynamic techniques were used to characterize the influence of NC on the secondary structure, thermal stability and energetics of monomolecular ...

Inhibitory effects of archetypical nucleic acid ligands on the interactions of HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein with elements of C-RNA

Disrupting the interactions between human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) nucleocapsid (NC) protein and structural elements of the packaging signal (C-RNA) could constitute an ideal strategy to inhibit the functions of this region of the genome leader in the virus life cycle. We have employed electrospray ionization (ESI) Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) to assess the ability of...

Inhibitory effects of archetypical nucleic acid ligands on the interactions of HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein with elements of Ψ-RNA

Disrupting the interactions between human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) nucleocapsid (NC) protein and structural elements of the packaging signal (Psi-RNA) could constitute an ideal strategy to inhibit the functions of this region of the genome leader in the virus life cycle. We have employed electrospray ionization (ESI) Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) to assess the ability ...
