The HIV-1 Vif protein associates with the DNA editing enzyme APOBEC3G Marin et al) . The binding site has not yet been mapped but emerging evidence suggest that the N-terminal lregion of Vif is essential for APOBEC3G recognition (Tian et al) .
Substitution of a single amino acid in the human APOBEC3G (Asp128Lys) abolishes binding and renders it resistant to HIV-1 Vif (Schrofelbauer et al; Bogerd et al.).
