Anyone who uses a word processor is likely thankful for
the spell checker program. But that autocorrect function can
introduce errors,“correcting”the spelling of words to ?t its stored
repertoire, which is decidedly limited.Take that one step further
and imagine a rogue program that destroys the coherence and
meaning of your prose by swapping out one letter for another
throughout the document.That’s the situation retroviruses like
the human immunode?ciency virus (HIV) face during the course
10.1371/journal.pbio.0020292.g001
of their infectious cycle, when a protein encoded by the host
genome slips into the virus, mutates the virus’s genetic material,
and alters the viral genome.
Genetic con?ict between the host antiviral editing enzyme
APOBEC3G, and the viral Vif protein leads to rapid ?xation of
amino acid replacements in both proteins
The gene, APOBEC3G, belongs to a family of primate genes
that produce enzymes (in this case, APOBEC3G) that“edit”DNA
and RNA, by slipping into viral particles and inducing mutations
that replace one base (cytosine) with another (uracil) as the virus
undergoes reverse transcription in the host cell’s cytoplasm.The
edited virus fails to replicate. HIV, in turn, generates a protein
called Vif that binds to the APOBEC3G enzyme and targets it for
degradation, thereby eliminating its antiviral activity.
Since the protein-binding regions that govern these
interactions have a direct effect on the ?tness of both virus
and host, one would expect to see the proteins angling
for advantage, with Vif maximizing its ability to recognize
APOBEC3G and APOBEC3G doing its best to evade Vif. Such
battles are thought to result in frequent mutations that alter the
amino acids involved in the interaction; the perpetuation of such
advantageous mutations is called positive s
