A Human Lymphoid Recombinant Cell Line with Functional Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Envelope
1 Jan 1993
Abstract excerpt
Our goal has been to develop a safe and effective system that would allow us to explore the functions of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) envelope. We have generated a human lymphoid cell line (TF228.1.16) that stably expresses functional HIV envelope proteins on its cell surface, and therefore closely mimics the viral envelope and virus-infected cells. The TF228.1.16 line forms syncytia with human cells of...
