TREX-1 is a restriction factor against HIV-1. The coding sequence of TREX1 gene was analysed in HIV+ subjects searching for genetic variations possibly associated with the susceptibility to HIV infection. The single nucleotide polymorphism rs3135945 was significantly associated with HIV infection, emphasizing the involvement of TREX-1 in the anti-HIV response.
TREX-1 是一种针对 HIV-1 的限制因子。对 HIV+ 受试者的 TREX1 基因编码序列进行分析,寻找可能与 HIV 感染易感性相关的遗传变异。单核苷酸多态性 rs3135945 与 HIV 感染显著相关,强调了 TREX-1 在抗 HIV 反应中的作用。
