Fig. 1. Biochemical characterization of CPSF6, NUP153 and SEC24C interactions with HIV-1 cores and CA tubes.

Fig. 1

Representative immunoblots showing CA nanotube mediated co-pelleting of endogenous CPSF6 (a), NUP153 (b) and SEC24C (c) from MT4 cell lysates. The proteins of interest were visualized by antibodies ab175237(Abcam) against CPSF6, NB100-93329 (Novus) against NUP153, ab122633 (Abcam) against SEC24C. Lane 1: cell lysate. Lane 2: supernatant or unbound fraction after pelleting in the absence of CA tubes. Lane 3: supernatant or unbound fraction after co-pelleting with pre-formed CA tubes. Lane 4: pelleted or bound fraction in the absence of CA tubes. Lane 5: pelleted or bound fraction in the presence of CA tubes. The experiments were repeated 3 times independently with similar results. Quantitation of GST-mediated affinity pull-down of native HIV-1 cores bound to indicated concentrations of GST-CPSF6261-358(LCR-FG-LCR) vs GST-CPSF6(FG)/nonLCR (d), GST-NUP1531306-1450(LCR-FG-LCR) vs GST-NUP153(FG)/nonLCR (e); and GST-SEC24C196-314(LCR-FG-LCR) vs GST-SEC24C(FG)/nonLCR (f). The results were analyzed by Origin 2019 (v.9.6) software to determine binding Kd values. Each data point represents mean values + /− SD from three independent experiments. Source data are provided as a Source Data file. g Quantitation of GST-mediated affinity pull-down of isolated native HIV-1 cores vs crosslinked CA hexamers with 2 μM GST-CPSF6261-358(LCR-FG-LCR) (left), GST-NUP1531306-1450(LCR-FG-LCR) (middle) and GST-SEC24C196-314(LCR-FG-LCR) (right). Mean values + /− SD from three independent experiments are shown. Source data are provided as a Source Data file. h Representative immunoblots of three independent experiments showing co-pelleting of GST-CPSF6261-358(LCR-FG-LCR) (top), GST-NUP1531306-1450(LCR-FG-LCR) (middle) and GST-SEC24C196-314(LCR-FG-LCR) (bottom) with pre-formed CA nanotubes. The experiments were repeated 3 times independently with similar results.
