Evolution of a species-specific determinant within human CRM1 that regulates the post-transcriptional phases of HIV-1 replication.

The human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) Rev protein regulates the nuclear export of intron-containing viral RNAs by recruiting the CRM1 nuclear export receptor. Here, we employed a combination of functional and phylogenetic analyses to identify and characterize a species-specific determinant...
