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 passage in African green monkey kidney cells. SV40 growth revertants can arise by amplification (usually duplication) of...
