Identification of unrecognized host factors promoting HIV-1 latency

Abstract excerpt

To counter HIV latency, it is important to develop a better understanding of the full range of host factors promoting latency. Their identification could suggest new strategies to reactivate latent proviruses and subsequently kill the host cells ("shock and kill"), or to permanently silence these latent proviruses ("block and lock"). We recently developed a screening strategy termed "Reiterative Enrichment and...
