ABSTRACT It was previously shown that a tat mutant (tat22) where cysteine 22 is substituted by glycine behaves as a transdominant negative mutant in Jurkat T cells lytically or latently


infected by HIV-1. In this study we demonstrate that tat22 controls HIV-1 replication in primary cells. This effect was observed both after in vitro infection of peripheral blood mononuclear


cells (PBMCs) from normal donors and after reactivation of the latent infection in PBMCs from seropositive patients. The antiviral effect of tat22 was limited to conditions of low virus


production. The use of tat22 may be promising for a gene therapy approach to AIDS during the asymptomatic phase of the disease allowing control of virus replication in infected cells and


inhibition of virus spread to uninfected cells. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access
