HIV-1 replication through hHR23A-mediated interaction of Vpr with 26S proteasome.
HIV-1 Vpr is a virion-associated protein. Its activities link to viral pathogenesis and disease progression of HIV-infected patients. In vitro, Vpr moderately activates HIV-1 replication in proliferating T cells, but it is required for efficient viral ...

Huntingtin-Interacting Protein 1 Promotes Vpr-Induced G2 Arrest and HIV-1 Infection in Macrophages
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) modulates the host cell cycle. The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpr arrests the cell cycle at the G2 phase in dividing cells, and the ability of Vpr to induce G2 arrest is well conserved among primate lentiviruses ...

Vpr complementation does not affect Vpr-defective single-cycle HIV-1 infection of MDDCs.
(A) Vpr incorporation in VSV-G-pseudotyped, single-cycle HIV-Vpr+ and Vpr-complemented HIV-Vpr-. Virion pellets were analyzed by immunoblotting with anti-Vpr and anti-p24, respectively.

Exposed hydrophobic residues in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Vpr helix-1 are important for cell cycle arrest and cell death. [PDF]
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) accessory protein viral protein R (Vpr) is a major determinant for virus-induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and cytopathicity.
