US07642051B2 Screening methods for the identification of inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viral protein R (Vpr) binding to the adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) 失效
鉴定人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)病毒蛋白R(Vpr)与腺嘌呤核苷酸转运蛋白(ANT)结合的抑制剂的筛选方法

Screening methods for the identification of inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viral protein R (Vpr) binding to the adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT)
Abstract:
The invention is directed to the induction of mitochondrial membrane permeabilization via the physical and functional interaction of the HIV-1 Vpr protein with the mitochondrial inner membrane protein ANT (adenine nucleotide translocator, also called adenine nucleotide translocase or ADP/ATP carrier). Reagents and methods for inducing and/or inhibiting the binding of Vpr to ANT, mitochondrial membrane permeabilization, and apoptosis are provided.
