HIV Protease (HIV-PR) and xenotropic murine leukemia virus protease (XMRV-PR) cleave polyproteins to produce the mature proteins of the  virus.  Both are aspartyl proteases.  The inhibition of HIV-PR results in an uninfectious HIV virion.  HIV-1 is found globally while HIV-2, which has lower virulence, is found in West Africa.
