In vivo adaptation of SHIV<sub>SF162</sub>: Chimeric virus expressing a NSI, CCR5‐specific envelope protein
10 Aug 1999
Abstract excerpt
The chemokine receptor CCR5 is known to be a critical determinant of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission and pathogenesis in the human host. Towards the development of a macaque model to evaluate the efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics against infection with CCR5-specific viruses, and to delineate the pathogenic properties of such viruses, we constructed a chimeric simian human immunodeficiency...
