negative viral genome, we overcame challenges associated with synchronization and infection-levels present in other models. We report identification and abundance dynamics of over 7000 proteins and 28,000 phospho-peptides. Consistent with Vpr's ability to impair cell-cycle progression, we observed Vpr-mediated modulation of spindle and centromere proteins, as well as Aurora kinase A and cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4). Unexpectedly, we observed evidence of Vpr-mediated modulation of the activity of serine/arginine-rich protein-specific kinases (SRPKs), suggesting a possible role for Vpr in the regulation of RNA splicing. This study presents a new experimental system and provides a data-resource that lays the foundation for validating host proteins and phosphorylation-pathways affected by HIV-1 and its accessory protein Vpr.
