Polypeptides inhibit HIV-1 replication by interfering viral Vpu-mediated tetherin degradation [PDF]
s: Background: HIV-1 Vpu acts by counteracting the tethering function of tetherin and resulting in the release of HIV-1 virion. Disrupting Vpu-tetherin interactions may provide a promising new target for antiretroviral therapy.

Tetherin antagonism by SARS-CoV-2 ORF3a and spike protein enhances virus release. [PDF]
The antiviral restriction factor, tetherin, blocks the release of several different families of enveloped viruses, including the Coronaviridae. Tetherin is an interferon‐induced protein that forms parallel homodimers between the host cell and viral ...

Exosome Tethering Requires Tetherin Homodimerisation. [PDF]
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that originate as intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) within multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Upon fusion of MVBs with the plasma membrane, ILVs are released into the extracellular environment as exosomes.
