HIV-1 Extrachromosomal 2-LTR Circular DNA Is Long-Lived in Human Macrophages
1 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
HIV-1 extrachromosomal 2-LTR circles (cc2LTR) are rapidly lost in dividing cell populations and, therefore, might be interpreted as representing new infection and ongoing viral replication. However, recent work demonstrated that cc2LTR persist in infected, growth-arrested T cell lines beyond their predicted half-life as previously determined in dividing cell populations. In this study, the evaluation of the...
