Abstract excerpt
We analyzed sequence variability and function of the long terminal repeat (LTR) from syncytium-inducing (SI) and non-syncytium-inducing (NSI) HIV-1. Twenty LTR DNA clones were obtained by polymerase chain reaction amplification and molecular cloning from short-term cultures of SI and NSI viruses from an AIDS patient and two asymptomatic individuals, respectively. All the LTR clones tested contained multiple...
