Abstract excerpt
Over 20 years into the ever-worsening AIDS pandemic, genetic variation remains the greatest obstacle for treating and preventing HIV-1 infection. Mutation rate assays for HIV-1 have been reported; however, none measure directly the forward mutation rate during replication of the virus in cell culture while still retaining the ability to propagate and further study mutant proviruses. Therefore, the objective of...
