Human TRIM5alpha (TRIM5alpha(hu)) potently restricts N-tropic (N-MLV), but not B-tropic, murine leukemia virus in a manner dependent upon residue 110 of the viral capsid. Rhesus monkey TRIM5alpha (TRIM5alpha(rh)) inhibits N-MLV only weakly. The study of human-monkey TRIM5alpha chimerae revealed that both the v1 and v3 variable regions of the B30.2/SPRY domain contain potency determinants for N-MLV restriction. These variable regions are predicted to be surface-exposed elements on one face of the B30.2 domain. Acidic residues in v3 complement basic residue 110 of the N-MLV capsid. The results support recognition of the retroviral capsid by the TRIM5alpha B30.2 domain.
人类TRIM5α(TRIM5α(hu))以一种依赖于病毒衣壳第110位残基的方式有效地限制N嗜性(N-MLV)而非B嗜性小鼠白血病病毒。恒河猴TRIM5α(TRIM5α(rh))对N-MLV的抑制作用较弱。对人-猴TRIM5α嵌合体的研究表明,B30.2/SPRY结构域的v1和v3可变区均包含N-MLV限制的效力决定因素。这些可变区预计是B30.2结构域一侧的表面暴露元件。v3中的酸性残基与N-MLV衣壳的碱性残基110互补。这些结果支持TRIM5α B30.2结构域对逆转录病毒衣壳的识别。
