Derivation and characterization of an HIV-1 mutant that rescues IP6 binding deficiency
Abstract Background A critical step in the HIV-1 replication cycle is the assembly of Gag proteins to form virions at the plasma membrane. Virion assembly and maturation are facilitated by the cellular polyanion inositol hexaphosphate (IP6), which is proposed to stabilize both the immature Gag latti...
