Essential functions of inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) in murine leukemia virus replication
ABSTRACT We have investigated the function of inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) and inositol pentakisphosphate (IP5) in the replication of murine leukemia virus (MLV).While IP6 is known to be critical for the life cycle of HIV-1, its significance in MLV remains unexplored.We find that IP6 is indeed important for MLV replication.It significantly enhan
