A series of HIV-1 CRF01_AE/CRF07_BC recombinants were previously found to have emerged gradually in a superinfected patient (patient LNA819). However, the extent to which T-cell responses influenced the development of these recombinants after ...

Evidence of differential HLA class I-mediated viral evolution in functional and accessory/regulatory genes of HIV-1. [PDF]
Despite the formidable mutational capacity and sequence diversity of HIV-1, evidence suggests that viral evolution in response to specific selective pressures follows generally predictable mutational pathways.

Formation of a Unique Cluster of G-Quadruplex Structures in the HIV-1 nef Coding Region: Implications for Antiviral Activity [PDF]
G-quadruplexes are tetraplex structures of nucleic acids that can form in G-rich sequences. Their presence and functional role have been established in telomeres, oncogene promoters and coding regions of the human chromosome.

HIV-1 Nef mediates caspase activation for viral release.
(A) RNAseq analyses for differential gene expression on highlighted gene groups responsible for the cellular signaling pathways leading to caspase activation and apoptosis. RNA sequencing were performed using day 6 Nef+ and Nef- HIV-1NL4-3 infected CD4 T

AIDS-associated, CCR5-tropic (R5) HIV-1 clones, isolated from a patient that never developed CXCR4-tropic HIV-1, replicate to a greater extent and cause greater cytopathic effects than R5 HIV-1 clones isolated before the onset of AIDS.

Construction of a Prokaryotic Expression Vector harboring Two HIV-1 Accessory Genes
Background and objectives: HIV-1 Nef and Vpr antigens have been described as suitable candidates for therapeutic HIV vaccine development. The aim of this study was to generate Nef-Vpr fusion gene construct and to clone the construct into pET-23a (+), a ...

Comparison of HIV-1 nef and gag Variations and Host HLA Characteristics as Determinants of Disease Progression among HIV-1 Vertically Infected Kenyan Children. [PDF]
Disease progression varies among HIV-1-infected individuals. The present study aimed to explore possible viral and host factors affecting disease progression in HIV-1-infected children.Since 2000, 102 HIV-1 vertically-infected children have been followed-

Background: We have reported that internal deletions in the nef, gag, and pol genes in HIV-1–infected patients are induced in those treated with Korean Red Ginseng (KRG). KRG delays the development of resistance mutations to antiretroviral drugs. Methods:

Characterization of the Cutaneous Exanthem in Macaques Infected with a Nef Gene Variant of SIVmac239 [PDF]
The molecularly cloned viruses known as SIVmac239/R17Y and SIVmac239/YEnef cause extensive lymphocyte activation and induce an acute disease syndrome in macaque monkeys. One manifestation of this syndrome is a severe diffuse cutaneous maculopapular exanthem that is similar to the exanthem associated with HIV-1 infection.
