We analyzed the nuclear trafficking ability of Gag proteins from six retroviral genera. Contrary to a previous report, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Gag showed no propensity to cycle through the nucleus. The only Gag protein that displayed CRM1-dependent nuclear cycling was that of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). Surprisingly, this cycling could be eliminated without compromising infectivity by replacing the RSV Gag N-terminal matrix (MA) domain with HIV MA.
我们分析了六种逆转录病毒属的 gag 蛋白的核转运能力。与之前的报告相反,人类免疫缺陷病毒 1 型(HIV-1)的 gag 蛋白没有穿过核的倾向。唯一显示 CRM1 依赖性核循环的 gag 蛋白是 Rous 肉瘤病毒(RSV)的 gag 蛋白。令人惊讶的是,通过用 HIV 的 MA 取代 RSV 的 gag N 端基质(MA)结构域,可以在不损害感染性的情况下消除这种循环。
