Rev Binds Specifically to a Purine Loop in the SL1 Region of the HIV-1 Leader RNA
1 Oct 2003
Abstract excerpt
The leader RNA sequence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) consists of a complex series of stem loop structures that are critical for viral replication. Three-dimensional structural analysis by NMR of one of these structures, the SL1 stem loop of the packaging signal region, revealed a highly conserved purine rich loop with a structure nearly identical to the Rev-binding loop of the Rev response...
