Association of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Vif with RNA and Its Role in Reverse Transcription
1 Oct 2000
Abstract excerpt
The vif gene of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is essential for viral replication, although the functional target of Vif remains elusive. HIV-1 vif mutant virions derived from nonpermissive H9 cells displayed no significant differences in the amount, ratio, or integrity of their protein composition relative to an isogenic wild-type virion. The amounts of the virion-associated viral genomic RNA and...
