Establishment of HIV latency in primary CD4+ cells is due to epigenetic transcriptional silencing and P-TEFb restrictionMudit Tyagi
Department of Molecular Biology and Microbiology, Case Western Reserve University, 10900 Euclid Ave, Cleveland, OH 44106 4960, USA
J Virol 84:6425-37. 2010..Thus, a combination of restrictive chromatin structures at the HIV long terminal repeat and limiting P-TEFb levels contribute to transcriptional silencing leading to latency in primary CD4(+) T cells...
