Abstract excerpt
A series of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) mutants was constructed either by deletion or by linker insertion at various regions in the gag coding sequences. The ability of each mutant to assemble virus particles and to process them proteolytically, as well as incorporate cyclophilin A, was analyzed by Western immunoblot. This investigation indicated that most of the gag mutants were assembled and released at...
