Alternatively, alteration of the virus membrane fluidity, restriction of the accessibility of the HIV-1 Env glycoprotein to the HIV-1 receptor/coreceptor complex by steric hindrance through an incorporated protein or inhibition of the maturation-induced clustering of HIV-1 Env trimers could represent mechanisms of cellular defense that target particle infectivity. Since it shares mRNA upregulation in CD4+ T-cells of HIV-1 infected individuals [11] and type I IFN-induced expression [10, 12, 13] with established restriction factors of HIV-1, it was included in a functional screen of candidate ISGs for antiviral activity (Goffinet, unpublished data). Additional family members, including IFITM5, whose expression is restricted to osteoblasts [22] , and 10 additional, recently discovered human ifitm genes [21] probably do not contribute to inhibition of HIV-1 infection or haven't yet been tested for antiviral activity, respectively. ./cache/cord-261382-cyty5noi.txt ./txt/cord-261382-cyty5noi.txt
