Identification and characterization of intragenic sequences which repress human immunodeficiency virus structural gene expression

Abstract excerpt

Examination of the life cycle of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has shown that multiple levels of regulation exist, including some which require the virus-encoded Rev protein. In the absence of Rev, mRNAs encoding the structural proteins remain untranslated, a phenomenon which appears, in part, to be caused by nuclear entrapment of these RNA species. To examine the basis for repression of structural gene...
