HIV-1 Vpr Induces Degradation of Gelsolin, a Myeloid Cell-Specific Host Factor That Reduces Viral Infectivity by Inhibiting the Expression and Packaging of the HIV-1 Env Glycoprotein

ABSTRACT Gelsolin (GSN) is a structural actin-binding protein that is known to affect actin dynamics in the cell. Using mass spectrometry, we identified GSN as a novel Vpr-interacting protein. Endogenous GSN protein was expressed at detectable levels in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) and in THP-...
