A 25-year-old Chinese woman, was found HIV antibody positive on December 14, 1988. During our follow-up, we tested her American husband and found him to be seronegative. Unfortunately, her six-month-old infant was seropositive. The standard Western blot test was used in the first stage of analysis. The bands which app

ts1, a spontaneous temperature-sensitive mutant of Moloney murine leukemia virus TB, causes hind-limb paralysis in mice. A Val-25----Ile substitution in gPr80env is responsible for temperature sensitivity, inefficient processing of gPr80env, and neurovirulence.

We constructed a recombinant human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) vector to facilitate studies of virus infectivity. A drug resistance gene was inserted into a gp160- HIV proviral genome such that it could be packaged into HIV virions. The HIV genome was rendered replication defective by deletion of sequences encoding g
