Structural insights into HIV-2 CA lattice formation and FG-pocket binding revealed by single particle cryo-EM.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
One of the most striking features of HIV is the capsid; a fullerene cone comprised of the pleomorphic capsid protein (CA) which shields the viral genome from cellular defense mechanisms and recruits cellular cofactors to the virus. Despite significant advances in understanding the mechanisms of HIV-1 CA assembly and host factor interaction, HIV-2 CA remains poorly understood. By templating the assembly of HIV-2 CA on functionalized liposomes, we were able to determine high resolution structures of the HIV-2 CA lattice, including both CA hexamers and pentamers, alone and in complexes with peptides of host phenylalanine-glycine (FG)-motif proteins Nup153 and CPSF6. While the overall fold and mode of binding the FG-peptides are conserved with HIV-1, this study reveals distinctive structural features that define the HIV-2 CA lattice, potential differences in interactions with other host factors such as CypA, and divergence in the mechanism of formation of hexameric and pentameric CA assemblies. This study extends our understanding of HIV capsids and highlights an approach with significant potential to facilitate the study of lentiviral capsid biology.
