Country	USA

Literature Information

PubMed PMID	24465210
Disease	HIV infection/AIDS
Published Year	2014
Journal	PLoS pathogens
Title	Preservation of tetherin and CD4 counter-activities in circulating Vpu alleles despite extensive sequence variation within HIV-1 infected individuals.
Author	Pickering S,Hué S,Kim EY,Reddy S,Wolinsky SM,Neil SJ
Evidence	These mapped to three conserved residues: G59 and E62 in the second alpha helix of the cytoplasmic domain, and R45 in the first alpha helix. A cluster of Vpus had defects that mapped to A50V or -T changes, which accounted for the suboptimal activity of the majority of Vpus isolated from NP1 (Figure 6).
