Human immunodeficiency virus integrase-LEDGF p75 isoform protein-protein interactions
The present invention relates to protein-protein interactions involved in AIDS. More specifically, the present invention relates to complexes of polypeptides or polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, fragments of the polypeptides, antibodies to the complexes, Selected Interacting Domains (SID®) which are identified due to the protein-protein interactions, methods for screening drugs for agents which modulate the interaction of proteins and pharmaceutical compositions that are capable of modulating the protein-protein interactions.
1. An isolated and purified HIV integrase/p75 isoform complex, wherein the HIV integrase has a selected interacting domain having a sequence designated as SEQ ID NO.: 130, and the p75 isoform has a selected interacting domain comprising amino acids 341-507 thereof.
