We report the activities of HIV integrase protein on a novel DNA substrate, consisting of a pair of gapped duplex molecules. Integrase catalyzed an intermolecular disintegration reaction that requires positioning of a pair of the gapped duplexes in a configuration that resembles the intgration intermediate. However, the major reaction resulted from an intramolecular reaction involving a single ...
Computational screening of inhibitors for HIV-1 integrase using a receptor based pharmacophore model
The HIV (human immuno-deficiency virus) integrase has a crucial role in viral replication. Moreover, it has no cellular homologue in humans. Hence, it is considered as an attractive drug target. Many inhibitors against the integrase protein has been designed and discussed. The Y-3 inhibitor (4-acetyl amino-5-hydroxy naphthalene - 2, 7- disulfonic acid) is already known to inhibit HIV-1 integras...
Agents active against HIV type 1 (HIV-1) that target the viral integrase by inhibiting the strand transfer step of integration have now entered the clinical arena. Raltegravir is the first in this new class. Clinical trials in treatment-experienced and in treatment-naive patients have shown that raltegravir-containing regimens have potent antiretroviral activity and are well tolerated. Drug res...
In vitro compartmentalization (IVC) was employed for the first time to select for novel bacteriophage lambda integrase variants displaying significantly enhanced recombination activity on a non-cognate target DNA sequence. These variants displayed up to 9-fold increased recombination activity over the parental enzyme, and one mutant recombined the chosen non-cognate substrate more efficiently t...
We found in the environmental strain Nitrosomonas europaea a chromosomal integron-like structure with an integrase gene, intI(Neu). We have tested the capacity of the IntINeu integrase to excise and integrate several resistance gene cassettes. The results allow us to consider IntINeu a new functional integron integrase.
Phage integrase genes often play a role in the establishment of lysogeny in temperate phage by catalyzing the integration of the phage into one of the host's replicons. To investigate temperate phage gene expression, an induced viral metagenome from Tampa Bay was sequenced by 454/Pyrosequencing. The sequencing yielded 294,068 reads with 6.6% identifiable. One hundred-three sequences had signifi...
Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), like all retroviruses, encodes an integrase protein that is responsible for covalently joining the reverse-transcribed viral DNA to host DNA. We have probed the organization of functions within RSV integrase by constructing mutant derivatives and assaying their activities in vitro. We find that deletion derivatives lacking the amino-terminal 53 amino acids, which conta...
The Tf1 retrotransposon represents a group of long terminal repeat retroelements that use an RNA self-primer for initiating reverse transcription while synthesizing the minus-sense DNA strand. Tf1 reverse transcriptase (RT) was found earlier to generate the self-primer in vitro. Here, we show that this RT can remove from the synthesized cDNA the entire self-primer as well as the complete polypu...
Integrase is an essential retroviral enzyme, catalyzing the stable integration of reverse transcribed DNA into cellular DNA. Several aspects of the integration mechanism, including the length of host DNA sequence duplication flanking the integrated provirus, which can be from 4 to 6 bp, and the nucleotide preferences at the site of integration, are thought to cluster among the different retrovi...
The locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE) is a large multigene chromosomal segment encoding gene products responsible for the generation of attaching and effacing lesions in many diarrheagenic Escherichia coli strains. A recently sequenced LEE harboring a pathogenicity island (PAI) from a Shiga toxin E. coli serotype O26 strain revealed a LEE PAI (designated LEE O26) almost identical to that obt...
