DNA strand breaks and gaps target retroviral intasome binding and integration

Abstract Retrovirus integration into a host genome is essential for productive infections. The integration strand transfer reaction is catalyzed by a nucleoprotein complex (Intasome) containing the viral integrase (IN) and the reverse transcribed (RT) copy DNA (cDNA). Previous studies suggested that...
