Identification of Siglec-1 null individuals infected with HIV-1
Binding of virus, HIV-1, to cellular protein Siglec-1 is important for infection of immune cells. Here the authors show that a natural mutation leading to production of truncated Siglec-1 reduces HIV binding and infectivity transfer in vitro, but does not substantially affect infection or AIDS outco...
