Abstract:
:Latency is the primary barrier to the development of a long-sought cure for HIV-1. In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Marian et al., (2018) describe the development of novel compounds targeting the BAF chromatin remodeling complex to reverse HIV latency, with the potential to provide a functional cure.
