Biophysical characterization of the feline immunodeficiency virus p24 capsid protein conformation and in vitro capsid assembly. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) capsid protein p24 oligomerizes to form a closed capsid that protects the viral genome. Because of its crucial role in the virion, FIV p24 is an interesting target for the development of therapeutic strategies ...

The Late Asymptomatic and Terminal Immunodeficiency Phases in Experimentally FIV-Infected Cats—A Long-Term Study

Viruses, 2023
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a lentivirus in the family Retroviridae that infects domestic cats resulting in an immunodeficiency disease featuring a progressive and profound decline in multiple sets of peripheral lymphocytes. Despite compelling

Molecular mechanisms of FIV infection [PDF]

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2008
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is an important viral pathogen worldwide in the domestic cat, which is the smallest animal model for the study of natural lentivirus infection. Thus, understanding the molecular mechanisms by which FIV carries out its life cycle and causes an acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the cat is of high priority ...

The role of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 in infection with feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

, 1999
Infection with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) leads to the development of a disease state similar to AIDS in man. Recent studies have identified the chemokine receptor CXCR4 as the major receptor for cell culture-adapted strains of FIV, suggesting ...
