DNAJ/HSP40 is an evolutionarily conserved family of proteins bearing various functions. Historically, it has been emphasized that HSP40/DNAJ family proteins play a positive role in infection of various viruses. We identified DNAJ/HSP40B6 as a potential negative regulator of HIV-1 replication in our genetic screens. In this study, we investigated the functional interactions between HIV-1 and HSP40 family members.
