Determinants of Increased Replicative Capacity of Serially Passaged Simian Immunodeficiency Virus with nef Deleted in Rhesus Monkeys
27 May 2003
Abstract excerpt
Most rhesus macaques infected with simian immunodeficiency virus SIVmac239 with nef deleted (either Delta nef or Delta nef Delta vpr Delta US [Delta 3]) control viral replication and do not progress to AIDS. Some monkeys, however, develop moderate viral load set points and progress to AIDS. When simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs) recovered from two such animals (one Delta nef and the other Delta 3) were...
