Autophagy inducing peptide.

Tat-beclin 1 is a cell permeable peptide derived from the domain of the autophagy protein beclin 1 that interacts with HIV-1 Nef, attached to the HIV-1 Tat protein transduction domain. Tat-beclin 1 activates beclin1 by competing against its negative regulator GAPR-1/glioma pathogenesis-related protein-2 (GLIPR2). Tat-beclin 1 suppresses the accumulation of htt103Q, a polyglutamine expansion protein derived from human mutant Huntingtin protein, and can inhibit the replication of pathogens including HIV-1 and West Nile virus in vitro and in vivo.
