Retromer Regulates HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein Trafficking and Incorporation into Virions
The envelope glycoprotein (Env) of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type-1 (HIV-1) is a critical determinant of viral infectivity, tropism and is the main target for humoral immunity; however, little is known about the cellular machinery that directs Env trafficking and its incorporation into nascent virions. Here we identify the mammalian retromer complex as a novel and important cellular fact...
متن کاملCyclosporine blocks incorporation of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein into virions.
Cyclosporine (CsA) decreases HIV-1 infectivity by blocking HIV-1 capsid (CA) interaction with target cell cyclophilin A (CypA). Yet, HIV-1 virions produced in the presence of CsA also exhibit decreased infectivity that was previously shown to be independent of the well-characterized HIV-1 CA-CypA interaction. Here, we demonstrate that CsA decreases gp120 and gp41 incorporation into HIV-1 virion...
متن کاملBiochemical evidence of a role for matrix trimerization in HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein incorporation.
The matrix (MA) domain of HIV Gag has important functions in directing the trafficking of Gag to sites of assembly and mediating the incorporation of the envelope glycoprotein (Env) into assembling particles. HIV-1 MA has been shown to form trimers in vitro; however, neither the presence nor the role of MA trimers has been documented in HIV-1 virions. We developed a cross-linking strategy to re...
متن کاملGlobal Rescue of Defects in HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein Incorporation: Implications for Matrix Structure
The matrix (MA) domain of HIV-1 Gag plays key roles in membrane targeting of Gag, and envelope (Env) glycoprotein incorporation into virions. Although a trimeric MA structure has been available since 1996, evidence for functional MA trimers has been elusive. The mechanism of HIV-1 Env recruitment into virions likewise remains unclear. Here, we identify a point mutation in MA that rescues the En...
متن کاملHIV-1 ENVELOPE. Effect of the cytoplasmic domain on antigenic characteristics of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein.
A major goal for HIV-1 vaccine development is the production of an immunogen to mimic native, functional HIV-1 envelope trimeric spikes (Env) on the virion surface. We lack a reliable description of a native, functional trimer, however, because of inherent instability and heterogeneity in most preparations. We describe here two conformationally homogeneous Envs derived from difficult-to-neutral...
