Endogenous Murine BST-2/Tetherin Is Not a Major Restriction Factor of Influenza A Virus Infection.
BST-2 (tetherin, CD317, HM1.24) restricts virus growth by tethering enveloped viruses to the cell surface. The role of BST-2 during influenza A virus infection (IAV) is controversial.

HIV-1 BF intersubtype recombinant Vpu second alpha helix plays an important role in the viral release and BST-2 degradation [PDF]
We previously reported a naturally occurring BF intersubtype recombinant Vpu variant with augmented capacity to enhance viral replication. Structural analysis of this variant revealed that its transmembrane domain (TMD) and α-helix I in the cytoplasmic ...

The interferon-induced transmembrane protein BST-2/CD317 (tetherin) restricts the release of diverse enveloped viruses from infected cells. The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu antagonizes this restriction by an unknown mechanism that likely involves the down-

KLHL12 promotes non-lysine ubiquitination of the dopamine receptors D-4.2 and D-4.4, but not of the ADHD-associated D-4.7 variant [PDF]
Dopamine D-4 Receptor Polymorphism : The dopamine D-4 receptor has an important polymorphism in its third intracellular loop that is intensively studied and has been associated with several abnormal conditions, among others, attention deficit ...

BST-2 mediated restriction of simian–human immunodeficiency virus
Pathogenic simian-human immunodeficiency viruses (SHIV) contain HIV-1 Vpu and SIV Nef, both shown to counteract BST-2 (HM1.24; CD317; tetherin) inhibition of virus release in a species-specific manner. We show that human and pig-tailed BST-2 (ptBST-2) restrict SHIV.

Development and Characterization of the Shortest Anti-Adhesion Peptide Analogue of B49Mod1
Inhibition of cancer cell adhesion is an effective approach to killing adherent cancer cells. B49 and its analog B49Mod1 peptides, derived from the extracellular domain (ECD) of bone marrow stromal antigen 2 (BST-2), display anti-adhesion activity on ...

Plasma Membrane-Associated Restriction Factors and Their Counteraction by HIV-1 Accessory Proteins. [PDF]
The plasma membrane is a site of conflict between host defenses and many viruses. One aspect of this conflict is the host's attempt to eliminate infected cells using innate and adaptive cell-mediated immune mechanisms that recognize features of the ...

Antiviral Activity of the Interferon-Induced Cellular Protein BST-2/Tetherin [PDF]
Pathogenic microorganisms encode proteins that antagonize specific aspects of innate or adaptive immunity. Just as the study of the HIV-1 accessory protein Vif led to the identification of cellular cytidine deaminases as host defense proteins, the study of HIV-1 Vpu recently led to the discovery of the interferon-induced transmembrane protein BST-2 ...
