Evidence	In agreement with published data, mutations in an alanine interface in the transmembrane domain of Vpu (A15L/A19L in subtype B, A20L/A24L in subtype C) abrogated the ability of all three viruses to decrease tetherin surface levels (Figure 1D and Figure 1:figure supplement 2A) and to counteract tetherin-mediated restriction of virus release (Figure 1E and Figure 1:figure supplement 2B).
