| Abstract | We characterized in detail the life cycle of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in human glioma H4/CD4 cells which stably express transfected CD4 DNA (B. Volsky, K. Sakai, M. Reddy, and D. J. Volsky, Virology 186:303-308, 1992). Infection of cloned H4/CD4 cells with the N1T strain of cell-free HIV-1 (HIV-1/N1T) was rapid and highly productive as measured by the initial expression of viral DNA, RNA, and protein, but all viral products declined to low levels by 14 days after infection. Chronically infected, virus-producing H4/CD4 cells could be obtained by cell cloning, indicating that HIV-1 DNA can integrate and remain expressed in these cells. The HIV-1 produced in H4/CD4 cells was noninfectious to glial cells, but it could be transmitted with low efficiency to CEM cells. Examination of viral protein composition by immunoprecipitation with AIDS serum or anti-gp120 antibody revealed that HIV-1/N1T-infected H4/CD4 cells produced all major viral proteins including gp160, but not gp120. Deglycosylation experiments with three different glycosidases determined that the absence of gp120 was not due to aberrant glycosylation of gp160, indicating a defect in gp160 proteolytic processing. Similar results were obtained in acutely and chronically infected H4/CD4 cells. To determine the generality of this HIV-1 replication phenotype in H4/CD4 cells, nine different viral clones were tested for replication in H4/CD4 cells by transfection. Eight were transiently productive like N1T, but one clone, NL4-3, established a long-lived productive infection in H4/CD4 cells, produced infectious progeny virus, and produced both gp160 and gp120. We conclude that for most HIV-1 strains tested, HIV-1 infection of H4/CD4 is restricted to a single cycle because of the defective processing of gp160, resulting in the absence of gp120 on progeny virus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
