Abstract excerpt
We have explored the mechanism directing the intracellular trafficking and nucleolar accumulation of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Rev protein. Treatment of Rev-expressing cells with mycophenolic acid, an inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase, resulted in a redistribution of Rev from the nucleoli to the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm. In contrast, a Rev effector domain mutant was retained...
