CCR5, GPR15, and CXCR6 are major coreceptors of human immunodeficiency virus type 2 variants isolated from individuals with and without plasma viremia.
Human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) is generally considered capable of using a broad range of coreceptors. Since HIV-2 variants from individuals with nonprogressive infection were not studied previously, the possibility that broad coreceptor usage is a property of variants associated with progressive infection could not be excluded. To test this, we determined the coreceptor usage of 43...
متن کاملCloning and analysis of sooty mangabey alternative coreceptors that support simian immunodeficiency virus SIVsmm entry independently of CCR5.
Natural host sooty mangabeys (SM) infected with simian immunodeficiency virus SIVsmm do not develop AIDS despite high viremia. SM and other natural hosts express very low levels of CCR5 on CD4(+) T cells, and we recently showed that SIVsmm infection and robust replication occur in vivo in SM genetically lacking CCR5, indicating the use of additional entry pathways. SIVsmm uses several alternati...
متن کاملGag p27-specific B- and T-cell responses in Simian immunodeficiency virus SIVagm-infected African green monkeys.
Nonpathogenic simian immunodeficiency virus SIVagm infection of African green monkeys (AGMs) is characterized by the absence of a robust antibody response against Gag p27. To determine if this is accompanied by a selective loss of T-cell responses to Gag p27, we studied CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses against Gag p27 and other SIVagm antigens in the peripheral blood and lymph nodes of acutel...
متن کاملFidelity of reverse transcriptase of the simian immunodeficiency virus from African green monkey.
The in vitro fidelity of highly purified recombinant reverse transcriptase from simian immunodeficiency virus of African green monkeys (SIVagm) was determined. By using the phi X174am16 reversion assay an overall error rate of 1/19,000 was determined. This is 2.4-fold higher than the overall accuracy of purified recombinant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, measured in parallel. The evaluation of er...
متن کاملSimian immunodeficiency virus utilizes human and sooty mangabey but not rhesus macaque STRL33 for efficient entry.
It has been established that many simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) isolates utilize the orphan receptors GPR15 and STRL33 about as efficiently as the chemokine receptor CCR5 for entry into target cells. Most studies were performed, however, with coreceptors of human origin. We found that SIV from captive rhesus macaques (SIVmac) can utilize both human and simian CCR5 and GPR15 with comparabl...
