Genetic and Biological Comparisons of Pathogenic and Nonpathogenic Molecular Clones of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV <sub>MAC</sub> )
1 Mar 1992
Abstract excerpt
Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) is a designation for a group of related but unique lentiviruses identified in several primate species. A viral isolate from a rhesus macaque (i.e., SIVmac) causes a fatal AIDS-like disease in experimentally infected macaques, and several infectious molecular clones of this virus have been characterized. This report presents the complete nucleotide sequence of molecularly cloned...
