About HIV Proteome

The HIV-1 subtype C lifecycle is a complex multistage process involving interactions between HIV-1 proteins and host macromolecules. The Early phase of the lifecycle consists of infection of host cell and integration of viral genome, and the Late phase of the lifecycle consists of regulated expression of the viral gene products, and production of viral particles.
