The retroviral restriction factor tripartite motif–containing 5α (Trim5α) acts during the early postentry stages of life cycle to block infection by a broad range retroviruses, disrupting reverse transcription and integration. mechanism this is poorly understood, but it has recently been suggested involve recruitment components autophagy machinery, including members mammalian autophagy-related 8 (ATG8) family involved in targeting proteins autophagosome. To better understand molecular...
Abstract The genomes of inbred mice harbor around 50 endogenous murine leukemia virus (MLV) loci, although the specific complement varies greatly between strains. Gv1 locus is known to control transcription MLVs and be dominant determinant cell-surface presentation MLV envelope, GIX antigen. Here, we identify a single Krüppel-associated box zinc finger protein (ZFP) gene, Zfp998, as show it necessary sufficient determine GIX+ phenotype. By long-read sequencing bacterial artificial chromosome...
