The retrovirus genome needs to be reverse-transcribed into DNA before it can be copied in the usual way. 1979, 16: 43-50. This has been exemplified by HIV-1 Nef and Vif and the cellular protein cyclophilin A. Some retroviruses also employ a secondary receptor, referred to as the co-receptor. Sheehy AM, Gaddis NC, Malim MH: The antiretroviral enzyme APOBEC3G is degraded by the proteasome in response to HIV-1 Vif. Based on its position within the gag gene, Fv1 apparently encodes for a CA-like protein.

Attempts to define the composition of RTCs and/or PICs have not yielded a clear answer, since the nature of the viral and cellular components found to be associated with the viral genome depends on the technique used for purifying the complexes, which are very sensitive to detergents. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2003, 9: 1398-1403. 10.1128/JVI.77.19.10376-10382.2003. 1999, 80 (Pt 8): 2003-2009.

Towers G, Bock M, Martin S, Takeuchi Y, Stoye JP, Danos O: A conserved mechanism of retrovirus restriction in mammals. However, particles entering by endocytosis do not support productive infection as they are degraded by the proteasome [60], a conclusion supported by the observation that inhibition of endosomal/lysosomal degradation increases the infectivity of HIV-1 [61]. Google Scholar. A restriction factor interfering with the replication of HIV-2 in certain human cells has been described [248, 249]. The trigger for the initiation of reverse transcription is not clearly understood, but exposure of the incoming viral ribonucleoprotein complex to a significant concentration of deoxyribonucleotides in the cytoplasm is thought to play an important role (for a review, see [4]).

Miller MD, Farnet CM, Bushman FD: Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 preintegration complexes: studies of organization and composition. Virology. Firstly, binding of HIV-1 to CD4 has been reported to result in a direct interaction between gp120 and certain glycosphingolipids in membrane microdomains [49]. 1994, 68: 2906-2914. Heinzinger NK, Bukinsky MI, Haggerty SA, Ragland AM, Kewalramani V, Lee MA, Gendelman HE, Ratner L, Stevenson M, Emerman M: The Vpr protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 influences nuclear localization of viral nucleic acids in nondividing host cells.

J Virol. 1997, 71: 1155-1161. Several studies have demonstrated that resting CD4+ T cells isolated from the blood of HIV-1-infected individuals contain completely reverse transcribed unintegrated viral DNA, likely constituting a latent reservoir (for reviews, see [264, 265]), since these forms of DNA were shown to be transcriptionally active [120]. It is interesting to note that the involvement of pH in retroviral entry has been reconsidered, since the distinction between pH-dependence and independence has been shown to be more relative than initially thought. MLV integration events distribute evenly upstream and downstream of the transcriptional start site of actively transcribed genes, +/- 1 kb from the CpG islands, whereas HIV-1 proviruses are found on the entire length of the transcriptional unit. Nature. NLSs are typically short stretches of amino acids, the best studied of which are basic amino acid-rich sequences that interact with the receptor importin β, either directly or through the adapter importin α [148]. The natural envelopes can be substituted with heterologous retroviral envelopes or alternative fusogenic … 1999, 274: 27875-27884. J Virol. The fact that most of the infectious HIV produced by primary macrophages is assembled on late endocytic membranes rather than at the plasma membrane suggests that a direct transmission of virions from infected macrophages to T-cells during antigen presentation could also occur [69]. Rev Sci Tech. This unique property of retroviruses maintains the genetic information life-long in the cell genome and constitutes a major advantage for retroviral vectors when gene correction must be continuous. 10.1128/JVI.76.23.12078-12086.2002. 1996, 274: 765-768. 2003, 300: 1749-1751. HIV Replication: Steps in the HIV Replication Cycle: Fusion of the HIV cell to the host cell surface.Cell Entry, HIV RNA, reverse transcriptase, integrase, and other viral proteins enter the host cell.Viral DNA is formed by reverse transcription.Viral DNA is transported across the nucleus and integrates into the host DNA.New viral RNA is used as genomic RNA to make viral proteins.New viral RNA and proteins move to cell surface and a new, immature, HIV virus … The stepwise events allowing retroviruses to enter the target cell, to move within the cytoplasm, to penetrate into the nucleus and to integrate its genome into host chromosomes, are beginning to be unravelled, but many issues are still unanswered. Springer Nature. 10.1084/jem.188.11.2113. 10.1128/JVI.77.18.9922-9930.2003. J Virol. Such movement has been demonstrated for incoming FVs which target the microtubule organizing centre (MTOC) prior to nuclear translocation. In contrast, lentiviruses such as HIV-1 are able to productively infect non-dividing cells [143], such as macrophages or quiescent T lymphocytes, indicating that PICs are able to actively cross the nuclear membrane [144]. These genes belong to the family of widely conserved Polycomb group of genes, involved in the maintenance of the silent state of chromatin and reduction of DNA accessibility. 2002, 76: 10299-10306. Ohagen A, Gabuzda D: Role of Vif in stability of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 core. Two other HIV-1 proteins have been proposed to possess karyophilic properties. A schematic view of early and late stages of the retroviral replication cycle is represented. 10.1093/emboj/19.15.3932. Heparan sulfates (HS) are highly sulfated polysaccharides, widely expressed on the surface of cells and which have been shown to be utilized as cell surface attachment factors by numerous viruses, bacteria and parasites (for a review, see [17]). Nagy K, Young M, Baboonian C, Merson J, Whittle P, Oroszlan S: Antiviral activity of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 protease inhibitors in a single cycle of infection: evidence for a role of protease in the early phase. 10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80694-7. The fact that 2-LTR junctions can be detected in the cytoplasm of MLV infected cells soon after viral entry, whereas these structures were believed to appear in the nucleus only if integration had occurred [182], may provide a clue to unravel this unknown mechanism.

Indeed, a Tas-defective genome (ΔHFV) has been described to behave like a defective interfering virus and to interfere with the replication of wild-type viruses by the production of Bet [255].

McClure MO, Marsh M, Weiss RA: Human immunodeficiency virus infection of CD4-bearing cells occurs by a pH-independent mechanism. 2000, 74: 10217-10222. Additionally, it should be noted that early expression of viral genes from unintegrated viral cDNA has also been described [116–120]. 2003, 116: 3433-3442. For example, the human apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme-catalytic polypeptide-like-3G (APOBEC3G), also known as CEM15, has recently been reported to be an endogenous inhibitor of HIV-1 replication [107, 110, 216]. Abbreviations: RTC, reverse transcription complex; PIC, pre-integration complex. Traffic. 1995, 108 (Pt 9): 3039-3050. Cell. The retroviral life cycle begins in the nucleus of an infected cell.

The retrovirus life cycle. 2002, 159: 441-452. First, an extracellular phase of the life cycle is not generally observed in the case of retrotransposons since most of them do not encode an envelope glycoprotein. Virology. 10.1016/S0092-8674(00)81823-1. But once again, a direct link between these observations and intracellular trafficking remains to be clarified. Cell Mol Life Sci. J Virol. Nature. Schaeffer E, Soros VB, Greene WC: Compensatory link between fusion and endocytosis of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 in human CD4 T lymphocytes. It seems that the MLV core persists longer than that of HIV since NC, MA and CA can all be detected in structures at the vicinity of the nuclear membrane by electron microscopy [89]. After penetration into the host cell, pathogens have to reach their sites of replication, the nucleus in the case of retroviruses. So that special case is called a retrovirus. However, although the involvement of HS in HIV-1 attachment has been widely documented, its exact role remains somewhat controversial (reviewed in [20]). 1994, 68: 8270-8276. 10.1128/JVI.75.6.2993-3000.2001. 10.1128/JVI.78.4.2006-2016.2004. Science. 10.1128/JVI.77.8.4722-4730.2003. 2002, 6: 570-571. Despite these lines of evidence, the contribution of lipid rafts to HIV entry remains controversial, as some studies have shown that the localization of CD4 and CCR5 to non-raft membrane domains may not prevent HIV entry [54, 55].
