Abstract excerpt
Transcriptional activation of HIV-1 gene expression is controlled by the interaction of sequence-specific transcription factors with the long terminal repeat (LTR). Information about differences between LTR regions in distinct HIV-1 subtypes is scarce. LTR sequences, including regulatory, enhancer, promoter, and TAR regions, were genetically characterized and compared in 59 HIV-1-infected individuals known to be...
