Description
Summary:RNA viruses, in pursuit of genome miniaturization, tend to employ cellular proteins to facilitate their replication. HIV-1, one of the most well-studied retroviruses, is not an exception. There is numerous evidence that the exploitation of cellular machinery relies on nucleic acid-protein and protein-protein interactions. Apart from Vpr, Vif, and Nef proteins that are known to regulate cellular functioning via interaction with cell components, another viral protein, integrase, appears to be crucial for proper virus-cell dialog at different stages of the viral life cycle. The goal of this review is to summarize and systematize existing data on known cellular partners of HIV-1 integrase and their role in the HIV-1 life cycle.
