Abstract excerpt
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Rev protein is a positive posttranscriptional regulator of viral structural gene expression and essential for virus replication. Rev mediates its effects through interaction with an RNA target sequence, the Rev responsive element (RRE), present within the env mRNA. Previous studies have shown that the basic stretch of amino acids are required for Rev's ability to...
