Peptides derived from HIV-1 Rev inhibit HIV-1 integrase in a shiftide mechanism.
The HIV-1 Integrase protein (IN) mediates the integration of the viral cDNA into the host genome. IN is an emerging target for anti-HIV drug design, and the first IN-inhibitor was recently approved by the FDA. We have developed a new approach for inhibiting IN by "shiftides": peptides derived from its cellular binding protein LEDGF/p75 that inhibit IN by shifting its oligomerization equilibrium...
متن کاملRetroviral integrase proteins and HIV-1 DNA integration.
Retroviral integrases catalyze two reactions, 3'-processing of viral DNA ends, followed by integration of the processed ends into chromosomal DNA. X-ray crystal structures of integrase-DNA complexes from prototype foamy virus, a member of the Spumavirus genus of Retroviridae, have revealed the structural basis of integration and how clinically relevant integrase strand transfer inhibitors work....
متن کاملComplementation between HIV integrase proteins mutated in different domains.
HIV integrase (IN) cleaves two nucleotides off the 3' end of viral DNA and integrates viral DNA into target DNA. Previously, three functional domains in the HIV IN protein have been identified: (i) the central catalytic domain, (ii) the C-terminal DNA binding domain, and (iii) the N-terminal region, which is also necessary for activity. We have now investigated whether IN proteins mutated in di...
متن کاملNucleocytoplasmic shuttling of HIV-1 integrase is controlled by the viral Rev protein.
In the current study we show that the Rev protein of Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) inhibits nuclear import and mediates nuclear export of the HIV-1 integrase (IN) protein, which catalyzes integration of the viral cDNA. Interaction between IN and Rev in virus infected cells, resulting in the formation of a Rev-IN complex, has been previously described by us. Here we show that nucle...
متن کاملPeptides Derived from HIV-1 Integrase that Bind Rev Stimulate Viral Genome Integration
BACKGROUND The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) integrase protein (IN), catalyzes the integration of viral DNA into the host cell genome. IN catalyzes the first step of the integration process, namely the 3'-end processing in which IN removes a pGT dinucleotide from the 3' end of each viral long terminal repeat (LTR). Following nuclear import of the viral preintegration complex, the ...
