The Vpu-interacting Protein SGTA Regulates Expression of a Non-glycosylated Tetherin Species
The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu enhances virus release by counteracting the host restriction factor tetherin. To further understand the role of host cell proteins in Vpu function, we carried out yeast two-hybrid screening and identified a previously reported Vpu-interacting host factor, small glutam...
