HIV Silencing and Inducibility Are Heterogeneous and Are Affected by Factors Intrinsic to the Virus
A reservoir of infected cells in which the HIV genome is transcriptionally silent is acknowledged to be the principal barrier to eradicating the virus from an infected person. A number of cellular processes are implicated in this silencing; however, the viral factors that may contribute remain under...
