Article Synopsis
  • * The study identifies and characterizes TgREMIND and TgBAR2, two proteins with BAR domains that play key roles in the creation of essential organelles and vesicular trafficking in the parasite.
  • * TgREMIND can bind to and remodel membranes, while TgBAR2 uniquely deforms anionic membranes, highlighting their differing roles in the parasite's membrane dynamics and trafficking system.

Replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) requires the packaging of tRNA from the host cell into the new viral particles. The GagPol viral polyprotein precursor associates with mitochondrial lysyl-tRNA synthetase (mLysRS) in a complex with tRNA, an essential step to initiate reverse transcription in the virions. The C-terminal integrase moiety of GagPol is essential for its association with mLysRS.
