Revealing the Complexity of Retroviral Repression
نویسندگان
چکیده
Retroviral restriction is a complex phenomenon that, despite remarkable recent progress, is far from being well understood. In this Preview, we introduce an insightful study by Yang et al. that represents the first attempt to identify the global determinants of retroviral repression in pluripotent mammalian cells.

Retroviral DNA methylation and epigenetic repression are mediated by the antiviral host protein Daxx.
Integrated retroviral DNA is subject to epigenetic transcriptional silencing at different frequencies. This process is mediated by repressive DNA methylation and histone modifications on viral chromatin. However, the detailed mechanisms by which retroviral silencing is initiated and maintained are not well understood. Using a model system in which avian sarcoma virus (ASV) DNA is epigenetically...
متن کاملRetroviral GAG proteins recruit AGO2 on viral RNAs without affecting RNA accumulation and translation
Cellular micro(mi)RNAs are able to recognize viral RNAs through imperfect micro-homologies. Similar to the miRNA-mediated repression of cellular translation, this recognition is thought to tether the RNAi machinery, in particular Argonaute 2 (AGO2) on viral messengers and eventually to modulate virus replication. Here, we unveil another pathway by which AGO2 can interact with retroviral mRNAs. ...
متن کاملTask Complexity Manipulation and EFL learners’ interactions in the process of collaborative pre-planning
Today, learners’ interaction and collaborative task performance have attracted increasing attention from language teachers and researchers. The present study investigated whether collaborative pre-planning, task complexity manipulation, and language proficiency level play a role in learners’ interactions. To this end, 128 EFL learners from two different language proficiency levels carried out t...
متن کاملRetroviral expression in embryonic stem cells and hematopoietic stem cells.
Achieving long-term retroviral expression in primary cells has been problematic. De novo DNA methylation of infecting proviruses has been proposed as a major cause of this transcriptional repression. Here we report the development of a mouse stem cell virus (MSCV) long terminal repeat-based retroviral vector that is expressed in both embryonic stem (ES) cells and hematopoietic stem (HS) cells. ...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effects of Financial Repression on Private Investment in Agriculture Sector
One of the present phenomena that virtually explain weaknesses in financial systems of different countries is financial repression. Financial repression encompasses the different interferences of governments in financial markets through determining the ceiling interest on bank deposits, high rates of legal reserves, and the government’s interference in distribution of bank credits,which prevent...
