Viruses, as non-cellular organisms, build up only from their genetic information and protein coat, need for their successful replication a broad variety of cellular proteins. By combination of immunochemical and virological techniques, we are currently studying two cellular proteins that are critical to the replication cycle of Mason-Pfizer monkey virus (M-PMV) and HIV-1.
