Abstract excerpt
The long terminal repeat (LTR) is reported to be one of the most variable portions of the equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) genome. To date, however, no information is available on the effects of observed sequence variations on viral replication properties, despite a widespread assumption of the biological importance of EIAV LTR variation. EIAV LTR sequence variability is confined mostly to a small portion of...
