Simian Immunodeficiency Virus SIVgsn-99CM71 Vpu Employs Different Amino Acids To Antagonize Human and Greater Spot-Nosed Monkey BST-2.

Abstract excerpt

Viral protein U (Vpu) is an accessory protein encoded by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and certain simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) strains. Some of these viruses were reported to use Vpu to overcome restriction by BST-2 of their natural hosts. Our own recent report revealed that Vpu of SIVgsn-99CM71 (SIVgsn71) antagonizes human BST-2 through two AxxxxxxxW motifs (A22W30 and A25W33), whereas...
