Title: Chimeric retroviral gag genes and screening assays
Usefulness: Chimeric retroviral gag genes and screening assays
Summary: The method is used to screen for candidate agents that may be used to treat retroviral infections especially those caused by HIV-1 and HIV-2.
Novelty: Screening for retroviral capsid assembly inhibitors, using chimeric Betaretrovirus domain Gag polypeptides, which induce the assembly of Gag polypeptides into viral capsids, useful for treating HIV
