    The barrier-to-autointegration factor is a component of functional human immunodeficiency virus type 1 preintegration complexes.

    Retroviral integration in vivo is mediated by preintegration complexes (PICs) derived from infectious virions. In addition to the integrase enzyme and cDNA substrate, PICs contain a variety of viral and host cell proteins. Whereas two different cell proteins, high-mobility group protein A1 (HMGA1) and the barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF), were identified as integration cofactors based on activities in in vitro PIC assays, only HMGA1 was previously identified as a PIC component. By using antibodies against known viral and cellular PIC components, we demonstrate here functional coimmunoprecipitation of endogenous BAF protein with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) PICs. Since integrase protein and integration activity were also coimmunoprecipitated by anti-BAF antibodies, we conclude that BAF is a component of HIV-1 PICs. These data are consistent with the model that BAF functions as an integration cofactor in vivo.

    • Related Articles

      Calculated set of PubMed citations closely related to the selected article(s) retrieved using a word weight algorithm. Related articles are displayed in ranked order from most to least relevant, with the “linked from” citation displayed first.

    • Gene

      Gene records that cite the current articles. Citations in Gene are added manually by NCBI or imported from outside public resources.

    • Gene (GeneRIF)

      Gene records that have the current articles as Reference into Function citations (GeneRIFs). NLM staff reviewing the literature while indexing MEDLINE add GeneRIFs manually.

    • HomoloGene

      HomoloGene clusters of homologous genes and sequences that cite the current articles. These are references on the Gene and sequence records in the HomoloGene entry.

    • Nucleotide (RefSeq)

      NCBI nucleotide Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that are cited in the current articles, included in the corresponding Gene Reference into Function, or that include the PubMed articles as references.

    • Nucleotide (Weighted)

      Nucleotide records associated with the current articles through the Gene database. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.

    • OMIM (calculated)

      Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) records that include the current articles as references in the light bulb links within or in the citations at the end of the OMIM record. The references available through the light bulb link are collected using the PubMed related articles algorithm to identify records with similar terminology to the OMIM record.
