Abstract excerpt
The HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein (NC) has been hypothesized to be cleaved by the viral protease (PR) during early infection. Characterization of viruses, with amino-acid substitutions that modulate PR cleavage of NC in vitro, was performed in cell culture. Two of the NC mutants, NCN17F and NCN17G,...
