: The oligomerization of HIV-1 integrase onto DNA is not well understood. Here we show that HIV-1 integrase binds the DNA in biphasic (high-affinity and low-affinity) modes. For HIV-1 subtype B, the high-affinity mode is ∼100-fold greater than the low-affinity mode (Kd.DNA = 37 and 3400 nmol/l, respectively). The Kd.DNA values of patient-derived integrases containing subtype-specific polymorphisms were affected two- to four-fold, suggesting that polymorphisms may have an influence on effective-concentrations of inhibitors, as these inhibitors preferably bind to integrase-DNA complex.
HIV-1 整合酶与 DNA 的寡聚化作用尚未得到很好的理解。在这里,我们表明 HIV-1 整合酶以两相(高亲和力和低亲和力)模式结合 DNA。对于 HIV-1 亚型 B,高亲和力模式比低亲和力模式高约 100 倍(Kd.DNA=37 和 3400 nmol/l,分别)。包含亚型特异性多态性的患者衍生整合酶的 Kd.DNA 值受影响 2 至 4 倍,这表明多态性可能对抑制剂的有效浓度有影响,因为这些抑制剂优选与整合酶-DNA 复合物结合。
