Destabilization of the TAR hairpin affects the structure and function of the HIV-1 leader RNA
The TAR hairpin of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA genome is essential for virus replication. TAR forms the binding site for the transcriptional trans-activator protein Tat and multiple additional TAR functions have been proposed. We previously constructed an HIV-1 variant in which the TAR-Tat transcription control mechanism is replaced by the components of the Tet-ON regula...
متن کاملHIV-1: fifteen proteins and an RNA.
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is a complex retrovirus encoding 15 distinct proteins. Substantial progress has been made toward understanding the function of each protein, and three-dimensional structures of many components, including portions of the RNA genome, have been determined. This review describes the function of each component in the context of the viral life cycle: the Gag and En...
متن کاملRNA structure. Structure of the HIV-1 RNA packaging signal.
The 5' leader of the HIV-1 genome contains conserved elements that direct selective packaging of the unspliced, dimeric viral RNA into assembling particles. By using a (2)H-edited nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) approach, we determined the structure of a 155-nucleotide region of the leader that is independently capable of directing packaging (core encapsidation signal; Ψ(CES)). The RNA adopts ...
متن کاملتوسعه روش NASBA-ELISA برای تشخیص HIV-1 RNA
چکید ه سابقه و هدف با شروع عفونت HIV-1 ، اولین مارکری که در خون آشکار می‌شود، RNA ویروسی می‌باشد. از میان روش‌های موجود که شناسایی RNA را هدف قرار می‌دهند؛ متداول‌ترین روش‌ها NASBA و RT-PCR هستند. NASBA مزیت‌های متعددی نسبت به RT-PCR ارایه می‌کند. در این پژوهش، واکنش NASBA در ترکیب با روش آشکارسازی آسان و حساس الایزا، برای تشخیص و آشکارسازی HIV-1 RNA مورد استفاده قرار گرفت. مواد و روش‌ه...
متن کاملThe prion protein has RNA binding and chaperoning properties characteristic of nucleocapsid protein NCP7 of HIV-1.
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies are fatal neurodegenerative diseases associated with the accumulation of a protease-resistant form of the prion protein (PrP). Although PrP is conserved in vertebrates, its function remains to be identified. In vitro PrP binds large nucleic acids causing the formation of nucleoprotein complexes resembling human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) nucl...
