Abstract excerpt
We have demonstrated that COS7 cells transiently co-expressing myristylation-defective (Myr-) and protease-defective (PR-) human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) mutants can release infectious virions when co-transfected with an amphotropic murine leukaemia virus envelope protein expression plasmid (...
