Retroviral Restriction Factors and Their Viral Targets: Restriction Strategies and Evolutionary Adaptations

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
The evolutionary conflict between retroviruses and their vertebrate hosts over millions of years has led to the emergence of cellular innate immune proteins termed restriction factors as well as their viral antagonists.

IFITM proteins restrict viral membrane hemifusion.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2013
The interferon-inducible transmembrane (IFITM) protein family represents a new class of cellular restriction factors that block early stages of viral replication; the underlying mechanism is currently not known.

FAM111A induces nuclear dysfunction in disease and viral restriction. [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO Rep, 2021
Mutations in the nuclear trypsin-like serine protease FAM111A cause Kenny-Caffey syndrome (KCS2) with hypoparathyroidism and skeletal dysplasia or perinatally lethal osteocraniostenosis (OCS). In addition, FAM111A was identified as a restriction factor for certain host range mutants of the SV40 polyomavirus and VACV orthopoxvirus.

Conformational adaptation of Asian macaque TRIMCyp directs lineage specific antiviral activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
TRIMCyps are anti-retroviral proteins that have arisen independently in New World and Old World primates. All TRIMCyps comprise a CypA domain fused to the tripartite domains of TRIM5α but they have distinct lentiviral specificities, conferring HIV-1 ...

DAZAP2 functions as a pan-coronavirus restriction factor by inhibiting viral entry and genomic replication

open access: greenmBio
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and the emergence of novel variants underscore the need to understand host-virus interactions and identify host factors that restrict viral infection.

Restriction of Viral Replication by Mutation of the Influenza Virus Matrix Protein [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Virology, 2002
ABSTRACT The matrix protein (M1) of influenza virus plays an essential role in viral assembly and has a variety of functions, including association with influenza virus ribonucleoprotein (RNP). Our previous studies show that the association of M1 with viral RNA and nucleoprotein not only promotes formation of helical RNP but also is required ...
