Open AccessdNTP pool modulation dynamics by SAMHD1 protein in monocyte-derived macrophages
SAMHD1 degrades deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs), suppressing viral DNA synthesis in macrophages. Recently, viral protein X (Vpx) of HIV-2/SIVsm was shown to target SAMHD1 for proteosomal degradation and led to el...

Open AccessKinetic variations between reverse transcriptases of viral protein X coding and noncoding lentiviruses
Host SAM domain and HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) suppresses reverse transcription kinetics of HIV-1 in nondividing cells such as macrophages by hydrolyzing and nearly depleting cellular dNTPs, which...
