Abstract excerpt
The requirement for tnv, a tat-env-rev fusion protein expressed by the IIIB strain of HIV-1, was tested. The expression of tnv was prevented by altering the 5' splice site that flanks the central coding exon of tnv. Mutants that carry such an altered 5' splice site replicate normally in an established T-cell line and in peripheral blood lymphocytes, demonstrating that tnv has no effect on virus replication....
