To understand the role of the HIV-1 capsid in viral replication, we developed a protocol to biochemically track capsid in the nucleus during infection. To this end, we separated HIV-1-infected cells into nuclear and cytosolic fractions. Fractions were analyzed by western blotting for HIV-1 capsid content as well as for nuclear and cytosolic markers to assess the bona fide origin of the fractions. This protocol can be applied in both cycling and non-cycling human cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Selyutina et al. (2020a).
为了了解 HIV-1 衣壳在病毒复制中的作用,我们开发了一种生化方法来跟踪感染过程中衣壳在核内的情况。为此,我们将感染 HIV-1 的细胞分离成核和胞质部分。通过 Western blot 分析各部分的 HIV-1 衣壳含量以及核和胞质标记物,以评估各部分的真实来源。该方案可应用于有丝分裂和非有丝分裂的人类细胞。有关此方案的使用和实施的完整详细信息,请参见 Selyutina 等人(2020a)。
