Target Information

Feline immunodeficiency virus virion infectivity factor (vif) is an essential protein for FIV infectivity. It counteracts host antiviral defenses, specifically targeting feline APOBEC3 proteins that inhibit viral replication. In veterinary medicine, vif is crucial for understanding FIV pathogenesis and developing antiviral strategies. By studying its interaction with host factors, researchers can identify potential targets for therapies to combat FIV infections in cats.
