DNA Physical Properties and Nucleosome Positions Are Major Determinants of HIV-1 Integrase Selectivity.

Retroviral integrases (INs) catalyse the integration of the reverse transcribed viral DNA into the host cell genome. This process is selective, and chromatin has been proposed to be a major factor regulating this step in the viral life cycle. However, the precise underlying mechanisms are still unde...
