Abstract excerpt
The replication competence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 genomes containing mutations in the nef open reading frame was evaluated in continuous cell lines. Mutants that contained a deletion in the nef open reading frame, premature termination codons, or missense mutations in the N-terminal myristoylation signal were constructed. The replication of these mutants was tested in three ways. First, plasmid...
