Half-lives of uncoating and fusion in the CsA washout assay
Virus | Uncoating (min) | Uncoating + NVP (min) | Fusion (min) | Normalized uncoating (min) |
HIV-GFP | 39.12 (4.14) | 117.87 (8.21) | 15.81 (3.02) | 23.31 |
HIV-GFPNevR | 38.94 (4.02) | 36.25 (3.13) | ND | ND |
R7X4-GFP | 73.5 (4.72) | 142.57 (1.99) | 48.33 (0.19) | 25.17 |
Time after infection at which 50% of cells were GFP positive in the normalized CsA washout assay was calculated from multiple independent experiments and averaged for HIV-GFP, HIV-GFPNevR, and R7X4-GFP. The half-life of viral fusion for HIV-GFP and R7X4-GFP was calculated and averaged. SE is in parenthesis. Normalized half-life of uncoating was calculated by subtracting the half-life of fusion from uncoating for HIV-GFP and R7X4-GFP. ND, not determined.
