Abstract excerpt
The effect of expression of defective HIV-based retroviral constructs in CD4-positive lymphocytes on subsequent infection of the cell by HIV-1 was studied. A vector containing a N terminally elongated gag protein which was noncleavable and myristoylation negative was not effective at inhibiting HIV assembly or viral replication in the culture. Expression of a wild-type HIV gag in trans led to an increase in...
