文摘HIV-1(human immunodeficiency virus type 1)病毒感染因子Vif(viral infectivity factor)是高度保守的碱性磷酸化蛋白质,是HIV-1的辅助调节蛋白之一。Vif蛋白的主要功能是能够介导宿主细胞体内载脂蛋白BmRNA编辑酶催化多肽样蛋白3G(apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide like 3G,APOBEC3G)的降解,从而增强病毒的感染性。此外,它还具有调节病毒的逆转录和复制晚期以及诱导细胞G2期停滞等功能。目前,许多实验室已经针对Vif蛋白进行抑制剂的设计。本文简要叙述了Vif蛋白的结构与功能,并主要对其抑制剂的最新进展进行了综述。
