spinqualitylabelsall models HIV-1 virion infectivity factor (deep sky blue) complex with human elongin-B (green) and elongin-C (pink) (PDB code 2ma9) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image   Print3D Function Virion infectivity factor (Vif) of HIV-1 is essential for efficient viral replication by binding to the a component of the innate immune system and triggering its polyubiquitination and rapid degradation thus preventing its entry into progeny virions. Interactions between HIV-1 virion infectivity factor and human elongin-B and elongin-C. For details see HIV and accessory proteins
