Reaction
the enzyme seems to have a preference for Val in P1' and Phe in P1. In contrast to the HIV-1 protease the feline immunodeficiency virus protease does not cleave the peptide KSGVFVQNGLVK at the Phe-Val bond. Gln in P2' may be inhibitory. In contrast to HIV-1 protease the feline immunodeficiency virus protease does not cleave peptide KSGNFVVNGLVK at the Phe-Val bond. Asn in P2 may be inhibitory =

metabolism
mammalian apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (APOBEC3) proteins act as intrinsic restriction factors against lentiviruses. Viral infectivity factor (Vif) degrades host APOBEC3 proteins via a ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent pathway. FIV protease cleaves feline APOBEC3 in released virions. Thus, lentivirus encodes two types of anti-APOBEC3 factors, Vif and viral protease
physiological function
FIV protease cleaves feline APOBEC3 A3Z2Z3 in released virions. FIV PR-mediated cleavage of feline A3Z2Z3 potently contributes to counteracting the antiviral effect mediated by feline A3Z2Z3
