The p6gag domain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is sufficient for the incorporation of Vpr into heterologous viral particles
1 May 1995
Abstract excerpt
The vpr gene of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) encodes a virion-associated regulatory protein. Mutagenesis has shown that the virion association of Vpr requires sequences near the C terminus of the HIV-1 Gag polyprotein Pr55gag. To investigate whether Vpr incorporation is mediated by a specific domain of Pr55gag, we examined the ability of chimeric HIV-1/Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV) Gag...
