SAMHD1 is a cellular dNTPase that restricts lentiviral infection presumably by lowering cellular dNTP levels to below a critical threshold required for reverse transcription; however, lowering cellular dNTP levels may not be the sole mechanism of restriction. In particular, an exonuclease activity of SAMHD1 was reported to contribute to virus restriction. We further investigated the requirements for...
SAMHD1 is a cellular protein that possesses dNTPase activity and inhibits retroviruses and DNA viruses through the depletion of cellular dNTPs. However, recent evidence suggests the existence of alternative or additional mechanisms that involve novel nuclease activities. Hepatitis B virus is a DNA virus but resembles retroviruses in that its DNA genome is synthesized via reverse transcription of an...
SAMHD1 limits HIV-1 infection in non-dividing myeloid cells by decreasing intracellular dNTP pools. HIV-1 restriction by SAMHD1 in these cells likely prevents activation of antiviral immune responses and modulates viral pathogenesis, thus highlighting a critical role of SAMHD1 in HIV-1 physiopathology. Here, we explored the function of SAMHD1 in regulating cell proliferation, cell cycle progression...
