Control of serine integrase recombination directionality by fusion with the directionality factor
Bacteriophage serine integrases are extensively used in biotechnology and synthetic biology for assembly and rearrangement of DNA sequences. Serine integrases promote recombination between two different DNA sites, attP and attB, to form recombinant attL ...

Abstract Introduction Black and Hispanic/Latine people are disproportionately affected by HIV‐1 and may have a greater risk of comorbidities than non‐Black and non‐Hispanic/Latine people with HIV. However, they have historically been underrepresented in HIV clinical studies.

GCN2 phosphorylates HIV-1 integrase and decreases HIV-1 replication by limiting viral integration
GCN2 is a serine/threonine kinase involved in cellular stress response related to amino acid starvation. Previously, we showed that GCN2 interacts with HIV-1 integrase and is activated during HIV-1 infection.

Abstract Introduction Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are the mainstay of treatment in adults and children living with HIV. Weight gain has been associated with INSTI use in adults; however, less data exist on its effects on younger patients.

Combining Alchemical Transformation with Physical Pathway to Accurately Compute Absolute Binding Free Energy [PDF]
We present a new method that combines alchemical transformation with physical pathway to accurately and efficiently compute the absolute binding free energy of receptor-ligand complex. Currently, the double decoupling method (DDM) and the potential of mean force approach (PMF) methods are widely used to compute the absolute binding free energy of ...

Bxb1 integrase serves as a highly efficient DNA recombinase in rapid metabolite pathway assembly
Phage-encoded serine integrases are widely used in genetic engineering. They also have the potential to serve as efficient DNA assemblers, demonstrated by the method of site-specific recombination-based tandem assembly (SSRTA) that can combine biological

Rethinking HIV treatment: How non‐integrase strand regimens may hold the key to better immune health
Abstract Purpose HIV outcome changed drastically with antiretroviral (ARV) therapy, especially after the introduction of second‐generation integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs). Despite these advances, however, chronic immune activation and exhaustion, marked by programmed cell death 1 (PD‐1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) upregulation ...

The Molecular Biology of HIV Integrase [PDF]
Integration of viral DNA into cellular DNA is an essential step in the replication cycle of HIV and other retroviruses. The first antiviral drugs that target integrase, the viral enzyme that catalyzes DNA integration, have recently been approved and more are in the pipeline. These drugs bind to an intermediate in DNA integration called the intasome, in

Abstract Objectives This retrospective, observational, non‐interventional study describes the demographics, characteristics, immunological and virological status, coinfections, healthcare unit of HIV diagnosis and follow‐up status of Ukrainian refugees with newly diagnosed HIV in the Czech Republic, with a special focus on those with a late HIV ...

HIV integrase inhibitor, Elvitegravir, impairs RAG functions and inhibits V(D)J recombination
Integrase inhibitors are a class of antiretroviral drugs used for the treatment of AIDS that target HIV integrase, an enzyme responsible for integration of viral cDNA into host genome.
