Lens Epithelium-derived Growth Factor/p75 Prevents Proteasomal Degradation of HIV-1 Integrase
9 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
The transcriptional coactivator lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF)/p75 acts as a chromatin tethering factor for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) integrase protein, determining its nuclear localization and its tight association with nuclear DNA. Here we identify a second function for the LEDGF/p75-integrase interaction. We observed that stable introduction of HIV-1 integrase (IN)...
