Abstract:Biomolecular condensates (BMCs) play an important role in the replication of a growing number of viruses, but many important mechanistic details remain to be elucidated. Previously, we demonstrated that pan-retroviral nucleocapsid (NC) and the HIV-1 pr55Gag (Gag) proteins phase separate into condensates, and that HIV-1 protease (PR)-mediated maturation of Gag and Gag-Pol precursor proteins yield self-assembling BMCs having HIV-1 core architecture. Using biochemical and imaging techniques, we aimed to further c… Show more
