Nonhuman Primate IFITM Proteins Are Potent Inhibitors of HIV and SIV.

Nonhuman Primate IFITM Proteins Are Potent Inhibitors of HIV and SIV.

Interferon-induced transmembrane (IFITM) proteins are potent antiviral factors shown to restrict the infection of many enveloped viruses, including HIV. Here we report cloning and characterization of a panel of nonhuman primate IFITMs. We show that, similar to human IFITM, nonhuman primate IFITM pro...
