Nucleic acid binding by SAMHD1 contributes to the antiretroviral activity and is enhanced by the GpsN modification

SAMHD1 catalyses the dephosphorylation of deoxynucleotide triphosphates (dNTPs) and has antiretroviral activity. Here, the authors present the crystal structures of SAMHD1-oligonucleotide complexes, which reveal that the allosteric binding sites of SAMHD1 are plastic and can fit oligonucleotides in...
