Abstract excerpt
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) encodes a trans-acting regulatory protein, termed Rev, which is critically required for virus replication. Rev is a sequence-specific RNA binding protein which mediates the nuclear export of unspliced and incompletely spliced viral mRNAs encoding the viral structural proteins. While CD and fluorescence measurements have provided several possible structural models of...
