This study characterizes HIV reservoir clones and shows they can be culled by sustained CTL pressure, with some displaying intrinsic resistance linked to low oxidative stress.

The paper examines HIV-1 expression in CD4+ T cell clones with latent proviruses, finding heterogeneous expression and limited response to latency reversing agents.

This study examines transcription of HIV-1 at sites of intact latent provirus integration in T cells, finding that latent proviral promoters are significantly less active than in productively infected cells and have minimal impact on neighboring gene expression.
