Pseudomonads Rule Degradation of Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons in Aerated Sediment.

abstract：:Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) relies heavily on the host cellular machinery for production of viral progeny. To exploit cellular proteins for replication and to overcome host factors with antiviral activity, HIV has evolved a set of regulatory and accessory proteins to shape an optimized environment for its repli...
