The control of viral infection by tripartite motif proteins and cyclophilin A
1 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
The control of retroviral infection by antiviral factors referred to as restriction factors has become an exciting area in infectious disease research. TRIM5alpha has emerged as an important restriction factor impacting on retroviral replication including HIV-1 replication in primates. TRIM5alpha has a tripartite motif comprising RING, B-Box and coiled coil domains. The antiviral alpha splice variant additionally...
