Phenotypes of SUN1 variants.
SUN1 | Restriction of HIV-1a | Binding to HIV-1 CA-NC complexesb | Localizationc |
---|---|---|---|
WT-FLAG | ++ | + | PS |
∆(1–20)-FLAG | ++ | + | PS |
∆(1–40)-FLAG | + | + | PS + NP |
∆(1–60)-FLAG | + | + | PS + NP |
∆(1–80)-FLAG | + | + | PS + NP |
∆(1–100)-FLAG | − | − | PS + NP |
aRestriction was measured by infecting cells expressing the indicated SUN1 variant with HIV-1-GFP. After 48 h, the percentage of GFP-positive cells (infected cells) was determined by flow cytometry. “++”: indicates strong restriction, “+” indicates moderate restriction, “−”: indicates absence of restriction.
bBinding to the HIV-1 capsid complexes was determined for each SUN1 variant as described in “Methods”. “+”: indicates binding, “−”: indicates no binding.
cWild type and mutant SUN1-FLAG proteins were assayed to determine localization. “PS” indicates Perinuclear staining, “NP” indicates Non-Perinuclear localization. “PS + NP” indicates both perinuclear and non-peri-nuclear staining is observed.
