Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV-1) encodes a 27 kDa Negative Factor or Nef protein, which is increasingly proving to be a misnomer. Nef seems to be crucial for AIDS progression as individuals infected with nef-deleted strain of HIV were reported to ...

[The expression of a fragment of the HIV-1 Nef gene in Escherichia coli bacteria].
The presence of antibodies to p27, the product of gene Nef, may be an important diagnostic sign since some sera from subjects of the risk groups negative to HIV-1 structural proteins may contain antibody to p27. The study resulted in construction of a hybrid plasmid determining in E coli bacteria the synthesis of a hybrid protein the N-terminus part of

Nef stimulates human immunodeficiency virus type 1 proviral DNA synthesis
The Nef protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) stimulates viral infectivity. The mechanism of this phenotype was investigated. Viruses containing disrupted nef genes were 4 to 40 times less infectious than wild-type HIV-1 in a single ...

Long-term survivors (LTS) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection provide an opportunity to investigate both viral and host factors that influence the rate of disease progression.

Introduction. HIV infection remains a global public health problem. One of the key elements in the system of measures aimed at controlling HIV-infection is molecular genetic surveillance.

Gene expression profiling was used to explore the role of Nef in HIV. Nef induces a transcriptional program in T cells that is 97% identical to that of anti-CD3 T cell activation. This program is inhibited in the presence of cyclosporin.

HIV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play an important role in the immune response to HIV infection. Long-term nonprogressors (LTNPs) or slow progressors (SPs) in HIV infection may make qualitatively different CTL responses compared to those ...
