Reviewed: Aiken, C, 2006-10-30 22:04:39 Authored: Iordanskiy, S, Bukrinsky, M, 2006-04-03 16:17:37 HIV-1 uncoating is a poorly understood process. It likely involves a progressive and partial dissembly of matrix and capsid layers. While viral proteins like MA and Nef are thought to be involved, the primary cause seems to be the cytosolic pH and a simple dilution effect. Successful uncoating generates the viral reverse transcription complex, which comprises the diploid viral RNA genome, tRNALys primer, RT, IN, MA, nucleocapsid (NC), viral protein R (Vpr) and various host proteins; the reverse-transcription complex is thus liberated from the plasma membrane. It is believed that the transiting viral nucleoprotein complex associates with the elements of cytoskeleton like actin microfilaments. Edited: Gopinathrao, G, 2006-02-17 18:35:46 |
