Viral factors in non-progression
Research has undergone considerable development in understanding a small subset of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected, therapy-naive individuals who maintain a favourable course of infection surviving for longer periods of time ...

Inhibition of Protein Synthesis by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 nef Gene Product
During productive infection of human T lymphocytes in cell culture, the expression of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is temporally regulated by virus-encoded regulatory proteins. Among these Nef, whose function has not been clearly elucidated, is thought to alter CD4+ T cells.

ABSTRACT To investigate the correlation between genetic abnormalities and fetal genitourinary (GU) anomalies in Eastern China and to provide assistance for the clinical management of fetuses with different types of GU anomalies. Five hundred forty‐five fetuses with GU anomalies were enrolled, undergoing karyotyping, copy number variation sequencing ...

The genetic evolution of HIV-1 from its progenitor virus SIV following cross-species transmission is not well understood. Here we simulated the SIVcpz initial transmission to humans using humanized mice and followed the viral evolution during serial ...

Natural variation of the nef gene in human immunodeficiency virus type 2 infections in Portugal
Human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) infections cause severe immunodeficiency in humans, although HIV-2 is associated frequently with reduced virulence and pathogenicity compared to HIV-1. Genetic determinants that play a role in HIV pathogenesis are relatively poorly understood but nef has been implicated in inducing a more pathogenic phenotype

Human Coronavirus 229E Uses ORF4/4a to Antagonize the Host Restriction Factor SERINC5
The seasonal human coronaviruses 229E and OC43 are common causes of mild respiratory infections but can cause severe disease in vulnerable individuals. Serine incorporator 5 (SERINC5) efficiently inhibits OC43, while hCoV‐229E uses its ORF4/4a accessory proteins to efficiently counteract this restriction by promoting relocalization of SERINC5 to ...

A very small proportion of people remain negative for HIV infection after repeated HIV-1 viral exposure, which is called HIV-1 resistance. Understanding the mechanism of HIV-1 resistance is important for the development of HIV-1 vaccines and Acquired ...

Simian immunodeficiency virus Nef gene regulates the production of 2-LTR circles in vivo
The replication dynamics of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIVmac32H-C8), attenuated through discrete genetic disruption of the nef gene, were compared with the wild-type parental clone (SIVmac32H-J5) using quantitative molecular methods. The primary viraemia of both infections were similar during the first week, but peaked on Day 10 at higher levels ...

Characterization of transgene expression in adenoviral vector-based HIV-1 vaccine candidates
Recombinant adenovirus vectors have been extensively used in gene therapy clinical studies. More recently, the capability of inducing potent cell-mediated and humoral immunity has made these vectors equally attractive candidates for prophylactic or ...
