Human PFDN3 favours HIV transcription by driving its integrase into degradation. HIV integrase remains bound to proviral DNA after its integration into the host genome. PFDN3 is required for the in situ ubiquitination of the HIV integrase and its subsequent degradation by the proteasome, by virtue of its physical interaction with the E3-ubiquitin ligase VHL.
