The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-encoded virion infectivity factor (Vif) is required to inactivate the host restriction APOBEC3 by engaging Cullin 5 (Cul5)-RING ubiquitin ligase (CRL5). Core binding beta (CBF-β) a novel regulator of Vif-CRL5 function; as yet, its mechanism regulation remains unclear. In present study, we demonstrate that CBF-β promotion assembly independent influence on Vif stability and also conserved feature primate lentiviral proteins. Furthermore, critical...
Background: Emerging evidence suggests social, health, environmental, and economic benefits of urban agriculture (UA). However, limited work has characterized the risks from metal contaminant exposures faced by growers consumers urban-grown produce. Objectives: We aimed to answer community-driven questions about safety UA consumption produce measuring concentrations nine metals in soil, irrigation water, across farms gardens Baltimore, Maryland. Methods: measured 6 nonessential [arsenic...
