Implication of the Lymphocyte-Specific Nuclear Body Protein Sp140 in an Innate Response to Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1
4 Oct 2002
Abstract excerpt
The viral infectivity factor (Vif) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) neutralizes an unidentified antiviral pathway that occurs only in nonpermissive (NP) cells. Using a yeast two-hybrid screen of a human lymphocyte cDNA library, we identified several potential Vif partners. One, the nuclear body protein Sp140, was found specifically in all NP cells (n = 12 cell lines tested; P < or = 0.001), and...
