Vpr Enhances HIV-1 Env Processing and Virion Infectivity in Macrophages by Modulating TET2-Dependent IFITM3 Expression

ABSTRACT HIV-1 Vpr enhances viral replication in human macrophages via multiple mechanisms that are not clearly defined. It does not affect HIV-1 virion production during the first round of infection. We have recently discovered that Vpr targets the DNA demethylase TET2 for degradation, which leads...
