'''Vpr protein''' (Vpr) or '''viral protein R''' is an HIV-1 protein which plays a role in regulating nuclear import of the HIV-1 pre-integration complex and is required for virus replication in non-dividing cells<ref>PMID:10371671</ref>.

'''Vpr protein''' (Vpr) or '''viral protein R''' is a 96 amino acid protein which encoded by the human Immunodeficiency virus type 1 ([[HIV-1]]). Vpr has several roles in the progression of HIV-1 disease, including regulation the HIV-1 pre-integration complex nuclear import and virus replication in non-dividing macrophages<ref>PMID:10371671</ref>.
