摘要
tsg101基因是一个抑制肿瘤基因,其翻译产物TSG101蛋白具有多重生物学功能。近年来的研究发现,TSG101蛋白通过与HIV-1 Gag蛋白结合,辅助HIV-1病毒颗粒从被感染细胞中释放出来,这说明TSG101可作为一个新的抗HIV-1靶点。基于TSG101蛋白与HIV Gag的相互作用和结构,研究人员设计合成了几类TSG101蛋白抑制剂,并通过测定这些抑制剂对TSG101蛋白的亲和力,发现其中某些化合物具有比野生型Gag更强的TSG101蛋白亲和力,值得进一步研究。
tsg101 gene is a newly found tumor suppressor gene whose product TSG101 has many important biological functions. Recent research of TSG101 has revealed that TSG101 aids HIV-1 budding from infected cells by attaching to Gag. HIV-1 budding is arrested in the cells with mutant TSG101 or without TSG101. So TSG101 would be a useful target for anti-HIV drug design. Now there is already some research on anti-HIV agents based on TSG101 structure. In this article the structure and function of TSG101 as well as the related inhibitors were reviewed.
