GCN5-dependent acetylation of HIV-1 integrase enhances viral integration
12 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: An essential event during the replication cycle of HIV-1 is the integration of the reverse transcribed viral DNA into the host cellular genome. Our former report revealed that HIV-1 integrase (IN), the enzyme that catalyzes the integration reaction, is positively regulated by acetylation mediated by the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) p300. RESULTS: In this study we demonstrate that another cellular...
