Abstract excerpt
We examined the biological properties of two infectious clones of a simian immunodeficiency virus, SIVMND, which were designated as pMD121 and pMD122. Upon transfection into CD4-negative cells, pMD122 generated virions much less efficiently than pMD121. Likewise, the growth kinetics in CD4-positive cells of virus derived from pMD122 were remarkably delayed relative to those of virus from pMD121. The cytocidal...
