Dissection of specific binding of HIV-1 Gag to the 'packaging signal' in viral RNA
Selective packaging of HIV-1 genomic RNA (gRNA) requires the presence of a cis-acting RNA element called the ‘packaging signal’ (Ψ). However, the mechanism by which Ψ promotes selective packaging of the gRNA is not well understood. We used fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and quenching data to...
