Influenza A virus does not encode a tetherin antagonist with Vpu-like activity and induces IFN-dependent tetherin expression in infected cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The interferon-induced host cell factor tetherin inhibits release of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from the plasma membrane of infected cells and is counteracted by the HIV-1 protein Vpu.

CD317/Tetherin is an organiser of membrane microdomains [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2013
The integral membrane protein tetherin has been associated with an eclectic mix of cellular processes, including restricting the release of a range of enveloped viruses from infected cells. The unusual topology of tetherin (it possesses both a conventional transmembrane domain and a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor), its localisation to membrane ...

The RING-CH ligase K5 antagonizes restriction of KSHV and HIV-1 particle release by mediating ubiquitin-dependent endosomal degradation of tetherin.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
Tetherin (CD317/BST2) is an interferon-induced membrane protein that inhibits the release of diverse enveloped viral particles. Several mammalian viruses have evolved countermeasures that inactivate tetherin, with the prototype being the HIV-1 Vpu ...

Tetherin/BST2, a physiologically and therapeutically relevant regulator of platelet receptor signalling.

open access: yesBlood Advances, 2021
The reactivity of platelets, which play a key role in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis, is tightly regulated. The integral membrane protein tetherin/bone marrow stromal antigen-2 (BST-2) regulates membrane organization, altering both lipid and ...

Structural Basis for the Antiviral Activity of BST-2/Tetherin and Its Viral Antagonism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The interferon-inducible host restriction factor bone marrow stromal antigen 2 (BST-2/tetherin) blocks the release of HIV-1 and other enveloped viruses.

Analysis of Determinants in Filovirus Glycoproteins Required for Tetherin Antagonism

open access: yesViruses, 2014
The host cell protein tetherin can restrict the release of enveloped viruses from infected cells. The HIV-1 protein Vpu counteracts tetherin by removing it from the site of viral budding, the plasma membrane, and this process depends on specific ...

Site-Directed Mutagenesis of HIV-1 vpu Gene Demonstrates Two Clusters of Replication-Defective Mutants with Distinct Ability to Down-Modulate Cell Surface CD4 and Tetherin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
HIV-1 Vpu acts positively on viral infectivity by mediating CD4 degradation in endoplasmic reticulum and enhances virion release by counteracting a virion release restriction factor, tetherin.

Quantitative multicolor super-resolution microscopy reveals tetherin HIV-1 interaction.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Virus assembly and interaction with host-cell proteins occur at length scales below the diffraction limit of visible light. Novel super-resolution microscopy techniques achieve nanometer resolution of fluorescently labeled molecules.

A Genetic Screen Identifies a Critical Role for the WDR81-WDR91 Complex in the Trafficking and Degradation of Tetherin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tetherin (BST2/CD317) is a viral restriction factor that anchors enveloped viruses to host cells and limits viral spread. The HIV-1 Vpu accessory protein counteracts tetherin by decreasing its cell surface expression and targeting it for ubiquitin ...
