Abstract excerpt
We previously reported that a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope (Env) mutant with the whole cytoplasmic domain deleted, denoted mutant TC, is able to dominantly interfere with wild-type (wt) virus infectivity. In the present study, the feasibility of developing a dominant negative mutant-based genetic anti-HIV strategy targeting the gp41 cytoplasmic domain was investigated. Mutants TC and...
