Identification of potential HIV restriction factors by combining evolutionary genomic signatures with functional analyses. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Known antiretroviral restriction factors are encoded by genes that are under positive selection pressure, induced during HIV-1 infection, up-regulated by interferons, and/or interact with viral proteins.

HIV vaccination: Navigating the path to a transformative breakthrough—A review of current evidence

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Background and Aim Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a significant global health challenge, with approximately 39 million people living with HIV worldwide as of 2022. Despite progress in antiretroviral therapy, achieving the UNAIDS “95‐95‐95” target to end the HIV epidemic by 2025 faces challenges, particularly in sub‐Saharan Africa ...

A cytoplasmic tail determinant in HIV-1 Vpu mediates targeting of tetherin for endosomal degradation and counteracts interferon-induced restriction.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2012
The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu counteracts tetherin (BST-2/CD317) by preventing its incorporation into virions, reducing its surface expression, and ultimately promoting its degradation.

Tetherin can restrict cell-free and cell-cell transmission of HIV from primary macrophages to T cells.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Bst-2/Tetherin inhibits the release of HIV by tethering newly formed virus particles to the plasma membrane of infected cells. Although the mechanisms of Tetherin-mediated restriction are increasingly well understood, the biological relevance of this ...

Rab27a controls HIV-1 assembly by regulating plasma membrane levels of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During the late stages of the HIV-1 replication cycle, the viral polyprotein Pr55Gag is recruited to the plasma membrane (PM), where it binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) and directs HIV-1 assembly.

Alpha interferon restricts human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 and 2 De Novo infection through PKR activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceType I interferon (IFN-I) inhibits the replication of different viruses. However, the effect of IFN-I on the human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) viral cycle is controversial.

Polarity changes in the transmembrane domain core of HIV-1 Vpu inhibits its anti-tetherin activity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Tetherin (BST-2/CD317) is an interferon-inducible antiviral protein that restricts the release of enveloped viruses from infected cells. The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu can efficiently antagonize this restriction.

HIV-1 Nefs Are Cargo-Sensitive AP-1 Trimerization Switches in Tetherin Downregulation.

open access: yesCell, 2018
The HIV accessory protein Nef counteracts immune defenses by subverting coated vesicle pathways. The 3.7 Å cryo-EM structure of a closed trimer of the clathrin adaptor AP-1, the small GTPase Arf1, HIV-1 Nef, and the cytosolic tail of the restriction ...
