2012年8月28日 · In this Progress article, we describe how SAMHD1 regulates the pool of intracellular nucleotides to control HIV replication and the innate immune response. Continued exposure to viruses and...

SAMHD1 is a cellular enzyme, responsible for blocking replication of HIV in dendritic cells, [5] macrophages, [6] monocytes [7] and resting CD4 + T lymphocytes. [8] It is an enzyme that exhibits phosphohydrolase activity, [ 9 ] [ 10 ] converting deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) to inorganic phosphate (iPPP) and a 2'-deoxynucleoside (i.e ...

Unlike activated CD4(+) T cells, resting CD4(+) T cells are highly resistant to productive HIV-1 infection. Early after HIV-1 entry, a major block limits reverse transcription of incoming viral genomes. Here we show that the deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase SAMHD1 prevents reverse transcription of HIV-1 RNA in resting CD4(+) T ...

SAMHD1 negatively regulates the innate immune sensing of HIV-1 DNA. SAMHD1 blocks HIV-1 infection through intracellular dNTP depletion, thus preventing the accumulation of viral DNA accessible to sensing by IFI16 and cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) and the activation of the type-I interferon (IFN-I) response.

2011年11月6日 · SAMHD1, an analogue of the murine interferon (IFN)-γ-induced gene Mg11 (ref. 1), has recently been identified as a human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) restriction factor that blocks early-stage virus replication in dendritic and other myeloid cells and is the target of the lentiviral protein Vpx, which can relieve HIV-1 restriction.

In this study, we demonstrate that SAMHD1 suppresses HIV-1 LTR-driven gene expression and binds to the LTR promoter in a latently infected cell line model. Furthermore, endogenous SAMHD1 suppresses HIV-1 LTR-driven gene expression in monocytic THP-1 cells and viral reactivation in latently infected primary CD4 + T cells.

SAMHD1 is a viral restriction factor expressed in dendritic cells and other cells, inhibiting infection by cell-free human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) particles. SAMHD1 depletes the intracellular pool of deoxynucleoside triphosphates, thus impairing HIV-1 reverse transcription and productive infection in noncycling cells.

2012年11月7日 · Here we show that the deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase SAMHD1 prevents reverse transcription of HIV-1 RNA in resting CD4 + T cells. SAMHD1 is abundantly expressed in resting CD4 +...

2011年5月25日 · Silencing of SAMHD1 in non-permissive cell lines alleviates HIV-1 restriction and is associated with a significant accumulation of viral DNA in infected cells. Concurrently, overexpression of SAMHD1 in sensitive cells inhibits HIV-1 infection. The putative phosphohydrolase activity of SAMHD1 is probably required for HIV-1 restriction.

2016年4月1日 · Recent biochemical and biological studies have suggested that SAMHD1 restricts HIV-1 infection in non-cycling cells by limiting the pool of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, thereby interfering with HIV-1 reverse transcription.
