Abstract excerpt
The rapid/high and slow/low phenotypic variants of primary HIV-1 isolates can be distinguished by their differential co-receptor utilization and their ability to productively infect established cell lines. To reveal possible differences in Tat-mediated transactivation, the potential for primary isolate Tat proteins to transactivate the LTR from the laboratory strain HIVLAV/Lai-1 was examined. Using either...
