Rev nuclear function requires active nucleocytoplasmic shuttling and Rev nuclear import is mediated by the recognition of its Nuclear Localisation Signal NLS by multiple import factors which include transportin and importin p. However it remains unclear which nuclear import pathway s predominate in vivo and the cellular environment that modulates Rev nucleocytoplasmic shuttling remains to be characterised. Results In our study we have identified the cellular protein HIC Human I-mfa domain-Containing protein as a novel interactor of HIV-1 Rev. We demonstrate that HIC selectively interferes with Rev NLS interaction with importin p and impedes its nuclear import and function but does not affect Rev nuclear import mediated by transportin. Hence the molecular determinants mediating Rev-NLS recognition by importin p and transportin appear to be distinct. Furthermore we have employed HIC and M9 M a peptide specifically designed to inhibit the transportin-mediated nuclear import pathway to characterise Rev nuclear import pathways within different cellular environments. Remarkably we could show that in 293T HeLa COS7 Jurkat U937 THP-1 and CEM cells Rev nuclear import is cell type specific and alternatively mediated by transportin or importin p in a mutually exclusive fashion. Conclusions Rev cytoplasmic sequestration by HIC may represent a novel mechanism for the control of Rev function. These studies .
