    Abstract Serine incorporator 5 (SERINC5 or SER5) is a multipass transmembrane protein with ill-defined cellular activities. SER5 was recently described as a human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) restriction factor capable of inhibiting HIV-1 that does not express its accessory protein Nef (Δ Nef). SER5 incorporated into the viral membrane impairs the entry of HIV-1 by disrupting the fusion between the viral and the plasma membrane after envelope receptor interaction induced the first steps of the fusion process. The mechanisms of how SER5 prevents membrane fusion are not fully understood and viral envelope proteins were identified that escape the SER5-mediated restriction. Primate lentiviruses, such as HIV-1 and simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs), use their accessory protein Nef to downregulate SER5 from the plasma membrane by inducing an endocytic pathway. In addition to being directly antiviral, recent data suggest that SER5 is an important adapter protein in innate signaling pathways leading to the induction of inflammatory cytokines. This review discusses the current knowledge about HIV-1 restriction by SER5.

    Abstract The rather few cases of humans infected by HIV-1 N, O, or P raise the question of their incomplete adaptation to humans. We hypothesized that early postentry restrictions may be relevant for the impaired spread of these HIVs. One of the best-characterized species-specific restriction factors is TRIM5α. HIV-1 M can escape human (hu) TRIM5α restriction by binding cyclophilin A (CYPA, also known as PPIA, peptidylprolyl isomerase A) to the so-called CYPA-binding loop of its capsid protein. How non-M HIV-1s interact with huTRIM5α is ill-defined. By testing full-length reporter viruses (Δ

    Abstract Staufen, the RNA-binding family of proteins, affects various steps in the Human Immuno-Deficiency Virus (HIV-1) replication cycle. While our previous study established Staufen-2-HIV-1 Rev interaction and its role in augmenting nucleocytoplasmic export of RRE-containing viral RNA, viral incorporation of Staufen-2 and its effect on viral propagation were unknown. Here, we report that Staufen-2 interacts with HIV-1 Gag and is incorporated into virions and that encapsidated Staufen-2 boosted viral infectivity. Further, Staufen-2 gets co-packaged into virions, possibly by interacting with host factors Staufen-1 or antiviral protein APOBEC3G, which resulted in different outcomes on the infectivity of Staufen-2-encapsidated virions. These observations suggest that encapsidated host factors influence viral population dynamics and infectivity. With the explicit identification of the incorporation of Staufen proteins into HIV-1 and other retroviruses, such as Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV), we propose that packaging of RNA binding proteins, such as Staufen, in budding virions of retroviruses is probably a general phenomenon that can drive or impact the viral population dynamics, infectivity, and evolution.

    Abstract Non-human primates (NHP) are an important source of viruses that can spillover to humans and, after adaptation, spread through the host population. Whereas HIV-1 and HTLV-1 emerged as retroviral pathogens in humans, a unique class of retroviruses called foamy viruses (FV) with zoonotic potential are occasionally detected in bushmeat hunters or zookeepers. Various FVs are endemic in numerous mammalian natural hosts, such as primates, felines, bovines, and equines, and other animals, but not in humans. They are apathogenic, and significant differences exist between the viral life cycles of FV and other retroviruses. Importantly, FVs replicate in the presence of many well-defined retroviral restriction factors such as TRIM5α, BST2 (Tetherin), MX2, and APOBEC3 (A3). While the interaction of A3s with HIV-1 is well studied, the escape mechanisms of FVs from restriction by A3 is much less explored. Here we review the current knowledge of FV biology, host restriction factors, and FV-host interactions with an emphasis on the consequences of FV regulatory protein Bet binding to A3s and outline crucial open questions for future studies.
