Mutant integrase

• HIV-1 replication is controlled at the level of T cell activation and proviral integration (Stevenson et al., EMBO Journal, 1990)
• Active Nuclear Import of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Preintegration Complexes (Bukrinsky et al., PNAS, 1992)
• Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Integrase Mutants Retain In Vitro Integrase Activity yet Fail To Integrate Viral DNA Efficiently during Infection (Leavitt et al., Journal of Virology, 1996)
• Mutations in the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Integrase D,D(35)E Motif Do Not Eliminate Provirus Formation (Gaur and Leavitt, Journal of Virology, 1998)
• Transient Gene Expression by Nonintegrating Lentiviral Vectors (Nightingale et al., Molecular Therapy, 2006)
• HIV-1 gene expression: lessons from provirus and non-integrated DNA (Wu, Retrovirology, 2004)
• Stochastic Gene Expression in a Lentiviral Positive-Feedback Loop: HIV-1 Tat Fluctuations Drive Phenotypic Diversity (Weinberger et al., Cell, 2005)

Kozak sequences

• Point Mutations Define a Sequence Flanking the AUG Initiator Codon That Modulates Translation by Eukaryotic Ribosomes (Kozak, Cell, 1986)
• At least six nucleotides preceding the AUG initiator codon enhance translation in mammalian cells (Kozak, Journal of Molecular Biology, 1987)
