Lentiviral Nef suppresses iron uptake in a strain specific manner through inhibition of Transferrin endocytosis

BACKGROUND: Increased cellular iron levels are associated with high mortality in HIV-1 infection. Moreover iron is an important cofactor for viral replication, raising the question whether highly divergent lentiviruses actively modulate iron homeostasis. Here, we evaluated the effect on cellular iro...
