Journey to the heart of macrophages: the delicate relationship between HIV-1 and a multifaceted cell type.

abstract：BACKGROUND:HIV-1 and all retroviruses are related to retroelements of simpler organisms such as the yeast Ty elements. Recent work has suggested that the yeast retroelement Ty1 replicates via an unexpected RNA lariat intermediate in cDNA synthesis. The putative genomic RNA lariat intermediate is formed by a 2'-5' phosp...
