The change of charge in the protein interaction site (AA 12鈥?9) and the presence of amino acids 12G, N51T, H116N and 188S in Nef were associated with a significant increased infectivity of Bal26-pseudotyped HIV-1 produced in the presence of SERINC3, while increased length of the protein interaction site (AA12鈥?9), 9S, 43I and S163C also increased and 11P, 14A, V148X, 161N and R178G decreased infectivity, albeit not significantly (Figure 5A and Supplementary Table S2). |

Abstract
|
Nef is a multifunctional viral protein that has the ability to downregulate cell surface molecules, including CD4 and major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) and, as recently shown, also members of the serine incorporator family (SERINC). Here, we analyzed the impact of naturally occurring mutations in HIV-1 Nef on its ability to counteract SERINC restriction and the clinical course of infection. HIV-1 Nef sequences were obtained from 123 participants of the Amsterdam Cohort Studies and showed multiple amino acid variations and mutations. Most of the primary Nef proteins showed increased activity to counteract SERINC3 and SERINC5 as compared to NL4-3 Nef. Several mutations in Nef were associated with either an increased or decreased infectivity of Bal26-pseudotyped HIV-1 produced in the presence of SERINC3 or SERINC5. The 8R, 157N and R178G Nef mutations were shown to have an effect on disease progression. Survival analysis showed an accelerated disease progression of individuals infected with HIV-1 carrying arginine or asparagine at position 8 or 157 in Nef, respectively, or the R178G Nef mutation. Here, we observed that naturally occurring mutations in Nef affect the ability of Nef to counteract SERINC3- and SERINC5-mediated inhibition of viral infectivity. The majority of these Nef mutations had no significant effect on HIV-1 pathogenesis and only the 8R, 157N and R178G mutations were associated with disease course.
