Cryo-EM structure of the Rous sarcoma virus octameric cleaved synaptic complex intasome

Pandey, Bera, Shi et al. report the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the Rous sarcoma virus octameric intasome complex stabilized by a HIV-1 integrase strand transfer inhibitor. This new structure highlights the intrinsic flexibility of the distal integrase subunits and suggests that ordered co...

Description
Summary:Pandey, Bera, Shi et al. report the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the Rous sarcoma virus octameric intasome complex stabilized by a HIV-1 integrase strand transfer inhibitor. This new structure highlights the intrinsic flexibility of the distal integrase subunits and suggests that ordered conformational transitions occur within the conserved intasome core during the assembly process.
