STRUCTURE OF THE N-TERMINAL DOMAIN OF THE MATURE HIV-1 CAPSID PROTEINSTRUCTURE OF THE N-TERMINAL DOMAIN OF THE MATURE HIV-1 CAPSID PROTEIN
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 12032547
FunctionFunction
[GAG_HV1N5] Matrix protein p17 targets Gag and Gag-Pol polyproteins to the plasma membrane via a multipartite membrane binding signal, that includes its myristoylated N-terminus. Also mediates nuclear localization of the preintegration complex. Implicated in the release from host cell mediated by Vpu. Capsid protein p24 forms the conical core of the virus that encapsulates the genomic RNA-nucleocapsid complex. Nucleocapsid protein p7 encapsulates and protects viral dimeric unspliced (genomic) RNA. Binds these RNAs through its zinc fingers. p6-gag plays a role in budding of the assembled particle by interacting with the host class E VPS proteins TSG101 and PDCD6IP/AIP1 (By similarity).
