Abstract excerpt
RNA helicase A (RHA) has been shown to promote HIV-1 replication at both the translation and reverse transcription stages. A prerequisite step for reverse transcription involves the annealing of tRNA(3)(Lys), the primer for reverse transcription, to HIV-1 RNA. tRNA(3)(Lys) annealing is a multistep process that is initially facilitated by Gag prior to viral protein processing. Herein, we report that RHA promotes...
