HIV-1: To Splice or Not to Splice, That Is the Question
Viruses, 2021 The transcription of the HIV-1 provirus results in only one type of transcript—full length genomic RNA. To make the mRNA transcripts for the accessory proteins Tat and Rev, the genomic RNA must completely splice.

HIV-1 Latency by Transition [PDF]
Immunity, 2017 The latent HIV-1 reservoir represents the major barrier for the development of an HIV-1 cure. In this issue of Immunity, Shan et al. (2017) highlight that effector-to-memory transitioning (EMT) CD4+ T cells are particularly permissive for the establishment of latent HIV-1 infection.

mBio, 2021 HIV-1 remains incurable due to viral reservoirs, which lead to durably latent HIV infection. Identifying novel host factors and deciphering the molecular mechanisms involved in the establishment and maintenance of latency are critical to discover new ...

Depicting HIV-1 Transcriptional Mechanisms: A Summary of What We Know
Viruses, 2020 Despite the introduction of combinatory antiretroviral therapy (cART), HIV-1 infection cannot be cured and is still one of the major health issues worldwide. Indeed, as soon as cART is interrupted, a rapid rebound of viremia is observed.

Bridging HIV-1 cellular latency and clinical long-term non-progressor: an interactomic view. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Development of an effective HIV management is enticed by the fact that long-term non-progressors (LTNP) restrict viral replication spontaneously, but is hindered by HIV-1 latency.

THE ROLE OF VPR IN HIV-1 LATENCY
Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) has dramatically improved the clinical prognosis for people with HIV and prevents transmission, ART is not a cure. This is because of a latent reservoir that persists in long-lived cells such as central memory CD4+ T

HIV-1 transcription and latency: an update [PDF]
Retrovirology, 2013 Combination antiretroviral therapy, despite being potent and life-prolonging, is not curative and does not eradicate HIV-1 infection since interruption of treatment inevitably results in a rapid rebound of viremia. Reactivation of latently infected cells harboring transcriptionally silent but replication-competent proviruses is a potential source of ...

Viruses, 2023 We sought to explore the hypothesis that host factors required for HIV-1 replication also play a role in latency reversal. Using a CRISPR gene library of putative HIV dependency factors, we performed a screen to identify genes required for latency ...

Transcriptional Stochasticity as a Key Aspect of HIV-1 Latency. [PDF]
Viruses, 2023 This review summarizes current advances in the role of transcriptional stochasticity in HIV-1 latency, which were possible in a large part due to the development of single-cell approaches. HIV-1 transcription proceeds in bursts of RNA production, which stem from the stochastic switching of the viral promoter between ON and OFF states. This switching is

Communications Biology, 2023 Latency is a major barrier towards virus elimination in HIV-1-infected individuals. Yet, the mechanisms that contribute to the maintenance of HIV-1 latency are incompletely understood.
