Unintegrated HIV-1 DNAs are loaded with core and linker histones and transcriptionally silenced
4 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
Upon delivery into the nucleus of the host cell, linear double-stranded retroviral DNAs are either integrated into the host genome to form the provirus or act as a target of the DNA damage response and become circularized.
