Background: The p6 region of the HIV-1 structural precursor polyprotein,
Gag, contains two motifs, P7TAP11 and L35YPLXSL41, designated as late (L) domain-1
and -2, respectively. These motifs bind the ESCRT-I factor Tsg101 and the ESCRT
adaptor Alix, respectively, and are critical for efficient budding of virus particles
from the plasma ... read moremembrane. L domain-2 is thought to be functionally redundant to PTAP.
To identify possible other functions of L domain-2, we examined this motif in
dominant viruses that emerged in a group of 14 women who had detectable levels of
HIV-1 in both plasma and genital tract despite a history of current or previous
antiretroviral therapy.
Keywords: HIV Gag, HIV protease, Protease inhibitors, Late domain,
