HIV-1 Integrase protein.The protein is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing the HIV-1 immunodominant regions from the polprotein (integrase).HIV belongs to the retrovirus family, distinguished by possession of a viral reverse transcriptase that transcribes viral RNA into DNA which is integrated into the host-cellgenome.The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) integrase (IN),one of the three virally encoded enzymes required for HIV-1 replication, must covalently join the viral cDNA into ahost chromosome for productive HIV infection.
