Abstract excerpt
The viral cDNA nuclear import is an important requirement for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication in dividing and nondividing cells. Our recent study identified a specific interaction of importin α3 (Impα3) with HIV-1 integrase (IN) and its involvement in viral cDNA nuclear import. In this study, we have performed a more detailed investigation on the molecular mechanism of how HIV-1 IN...
