Abstract excerpt
HIV-1 replication depends on the expression of trans-regulatory genes (tat, rev) encoded in the 3' part of the retroviral genome. HIV-1 Rev trans-activator protein allows the cytoplasmic translocation of incompletely spliced retroviral mRNA which is required for the translational switch from regulatory (Tat, Rev, Nef) to structural proteins (Gag, Pol, Env). The HIV-1 Rev regulatory protein comprises an activation...
