Conclusion
- Localization of HIV-1 Vpr to the nuclear envelope: Impact on Vpr functions and virus replication in macrophages

The present study shows that the targeting of Vpr to the nuclear pore complex may constitute an early step toward Vpr-induced G2-arrest and subsequent apoptosis. However, this localization at the NE is not absolutely required, but could improve HIV-1 replication in macrophages.
