Mode of NUP153C binding to EIAV CA.

(A) Alignment of residues corresponding to HIV-1 CA Leu56 through Asn74 among various retroviruses. Residues that significantly affected HIV-1 CAN binding with NUP153C are highlighted in yellow. (B) Alignment of HIV-1 CAN (green, pdb: 3mge) and EIAV CAN (gray, pdb: 1eia), with side-chains surrounding the pocket shown as sticks. (C) Retroviral sensitivities to inhibition by PF74. Color codes: HIV-1, green; SIVmac, black; MLV, red; EIAV, orange; BIV, blue; FIV, purple. Results are an average of two experiments. (D) Retroviral sensitivities to inhibition by Trim-CPSF6358. Results are an average of 3 experiments. (E) Infectivity of RT-cpm matched EIAV GFP-reporter viruses carrying CA point mutations. Results are an average of 3 experiments. (F) Pull-down of purified NUP153C by EIAV point mutant CAN proteins. Results are an average of 2 experiments. (G) Sensitivity of EIAV CA point-mutant viruses to Trim-NUP153C. Results are an average of 4 experiments. Error bars in each panel denote standard error.
