Abstract
HIV requires many proteins to complete its life cycle. Many of these proteins are decorated with biologically critical modifications that alter structure and function. In fact, there are many different types of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) involved in the virus life cycle (Fig. 6.1). In this chapter, we will reintroduce the virus life cycle from the perspective of PTMs. While these modifications will be described in detail later in the chapter, we will highlight new modifications in bold as they are introduced.
