Phylogenetic insights into the functional relationship between primate lentiviral reverse transcriptase and accessory proteins Vpx/Vpr
The efficiency of reverse transcription to synthesize viral DNA in infected cells greatly influences replication kinetics of retroviruses. However, viral replication in non-dividing cells such as resting T cells and terminally differentiated macrophages is potently and kinetically restricted by a ho...
