Immature HIV-1 lattice assembly dynamics are regulated by scaffolding from nucleic acid and the plasma membrane [Chemistry]

The packaging and budding of Gag polyprotein and viral RNA is a critical step in the HIV-1 life cycle. High-resolution structures of the Gag polyprotein have revealed that the capsid (CA) and spacer peptide 1 (SP1) domains contain important interfaces for Gag self-assembly. However, the molecular details of the multimerization...
