Molecular and biological characterization of simian immunodeficiency virus macaque strain 32H proviral clones containing nef size variants

Abstract excerpt

The proviral genome of the 32H reisolate of simian immunodeficiency of macaques (SIVmac32H) has been cloned and sequenced. Including both long terminal repeats, it is 10277 base pairs in length and contains open reading frames for all known SIV genes (gag, pol, vif, vpx, vpr, tat, rev, env and nef). This is the first report of an infectious SIVmac molecular clone which contains no premature termination codons....
