Abstract excerpt
Equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV), a lentivirus, encodes a trans-activator (tat) which stimulates gene expression directed by the viral long terminal repeat (LTR). This function has been previously shown by us and others to be encoded by sequences within the middle region of the EIAV genome in which two short open reading frames, S1 and S2, reside. In the present study, by using in vitro mutagenesis, we show...
