Site-Directed Mutagenesis of HIV-1 vpu Gene Demonstrates Two Clusters of Replication-Defective Mutants with Distinct Ability to Down-Modulate Cell Surface CD4 and Tetherin

HIV-1 Vpu acts positively on viral infectivity by mediating CD4 degradation in endoplasmic reticulum and enhances virion release by counteracting a virion release restriction factor, tetherin. In order to define the impact of Vpu activity on HIV-1 replication, we have generated a series of site-spec...
