Early reverse transcription is essential for productive foamy virus infection.
BACKGROUND: Although viral RNA constitutes the majority of nucleic acids packaged in virions, a late occurring step of reverse transcription leads to the presence of infectious viral cDNA in foamy virus particles. This peculiarity distinguishes them from the rest of the retroviral family. PRINCIPAL...
