Abstract excerpt
To search for broadly active enhancer elements within the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) long terminal repeat, we have used a proto-enhancer amplification assay. In this assay, the enhancer region of simian virus 40 (SV40) is replaced by heterologous regulatory sequences. Upon passag...
