We have studied the fate of CD4 in CEM T cells expressing a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 HIV-1 Nef protein. Nef triggered a rapid endocytosis and a degradation of CD4, while most of the p56lck was upheld at the cell membrane. In the presence of Nef, CD4 accumulated in acidic intracellular vesicles that were not stained by antibodies against rab6, a marker of the Golgi apparatus complex. Detection of transferrin in CD4-containing vesicles showed that CD4 was trapped in early endosomes, without significant accumulation of CD4 in late endocytic compartments. Internalization pathways taken by CD4 in Nef+ cells may therefore be different from those observed after treatment with phorbol esters.

D015497 HIV-1 The type species of LENTIVIRUS and the etiologic agent of AIDS. It is characterized by its cytopathic effect and affinity for the T4-lymphocyte. Human immunodeficiency virus 1,HIV-I,Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1,Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1, Human
D015693 Gene Products, nef Products of the retroviral NEF GENE. They play a role as accessory proteins that influence the rate of viral infectivity and the destruction of the host immune system. nef gene products were originally found as factors that trans-suppress viral replication and function as negative regulators of transcription. nef stands for negative factor. nef Gene Products,nef Protein,3'-orf Protein,Gene Product, nef,3' orf Protein,nef Gene Product
D015704 CD4 Antigens 55-kDa antigens found on HELPER-INDUCER T-LYMPHOCYTES and on a variety of other immune cell types. They are members of the immunoglobulin supergene family and are implicated as associative recognition elements in MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX class II-restricted immune responses. On T-lymphocytes they define the helper/inducer subset. T4 antigens also serve as INTERLEUKIN-15 receptors and bind to the HIV receptors, binding directly to the HIV ENVELOPE PROTEIN GP120.
