Abstract excerpt
Transgenic mice bearing HIV-1 proviral DNA deleted in the gag/pol region (HIVd1443 mice) model a chronic, nonproductive form of viral gene expression in various cell types including macrophages. They display a disease phenotype that includes HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN), congenital cataracts, papillomatosis, and growth failure. The role of HIV-1 Nef in viral gene regulation and the development of disease...
