FEATURES

DESCRIPTION

Also known as BET_SFVCP, bet. Bet counteracts the innate antiretroviral activity of APOBEC3 family defense factors by inhibiting their incorporation into virions. May be implicated in the establishment and/or maintenance of viral persistance. Bet is required for viral replication (By similarity). Bet interacts with host APOBEC3C; this interaction does not induce APOBEC3C degradation, but prevents dimerization and incorporation into virion of the latter.
