“…IN is responsible for the integration of viral DNA into host cell genome via a two-step process. 6,7 In the first step, IN binds to viral DNA as part of the preintegration complex (PIC) in the cytoplasm and excises a dinucleotide from each 3′-end. Following this 3′-processing event, the PIC is transported into the nucleus where the 3′-ends of viral DNA are covalently linked to the 5′-ends of the host cell DNA in a process known as strand transfer.…”

“…IN has been extensively studied as a therapeutic target in the field of AIDS antiretroviral therapy since it establishes irreversible infection and has no cellular equivalent, which limits toxicity. 1,2 The integration process involves a sequence of 2 reactions, which both require the presence of metallic cofactors: in the cytoplasm, a DNA-IN complex is formed that catalyzes the endonucleolytic cleavage of a dinucleotide at each 3′-end of the dsDNA (the 3′-processing step, 3′-P) After transport into the nucleus, the strand transfer step (ST), catalyzed by the intasome (a specific tetramer of IN and viral DNA ends) then joins each 3′-end of this recessed DNA to a 5′-end in the host DNA.…”

“…Due to its critical role in replication, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) IN has long been targeted for drug development, and the first-in-class inhibitor raltegravir (RAL) was licensed in 2007 (45). Because RAL and related compounds preferentially inhibit DNA strand transfer activity, the drugs are referred to as IN strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) (24). Elvitegravir (EVG) is another well-studied INSTI (41).…”

“…RSV IN harbors two amino acids, Ser150 and Gly152, that when present in HIV-1 as P145S or S147G confer significant resistance to EVG (16,24,40). To test if either or both of these residues contribute to the relative insensitivity to EVG, S150P and G152S changes were introduced into RSV IN either alone or in combination, and equivalent RT cpm of VSV-G-pseudotyped virions were used to infect cells.…”
