Study of the HIV-2 Env cytoplasmic tail variability and its impact on Tat, Rev and Nef.
BACKGROUND:The HIV-2 env's 3' end encodes the cytoplasmic tail (CT) of the Env protein. This genomic region also encodes the rev, Tat and Nef protein in overlapping reading frames. We studied the variability in the CT coding region in 46 clinical specimens and in 2 reference strains by seq...
