Lv1 Inhibition of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Is Counteracted by Factors That Stimulate Synthesis or Nuclear Translocation of Viral cDNA
12 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) cDNA synthesis is inhibited in cells from some nonhuman primates by an activity called Lv1. Sensitivity to restriction by Lv1 maps to a region of the HIV-1 CA required for interaction with the cellular protein cyclophilin A. A similar antiviral activity in mammalian cells, Ref1, inhibits reverse transcription of murine leukemia virus (MLV), but only with viral strains...
