Abstract excerpt
The HIV-1 transframe protein p6 known to modulate HIV-1 protease activation has been suggested to interact with the viral pathogenicity factor Nef. However, a potential interaction site in p6 has not been mapped so far. To evaluate effects of p6 modification on viral replication in light of Nef function, clustered substitutions were introduced into the central p6 region of the infectious provirus NL4-3 and virus...
