FIV-FCA and FIV-PCO Reverse Transcriptases: Expression, Purification and Activity Comparison
… immunodeficiency virus from domestic cats (FIV-Fca) and cougars (FIV-Pco) are genetically related but they have significantly different evolutionary rates and virulence in their natural hosts. Additionally, recombination in FIV infested cats is common but there is no evidence for …

The pivotal role of dendritic cells in feline immunodeficiency virus infection
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is the feline counterpart to human immunodeficiency virus. Dendritic cells (DC) are one of the first cell types encountered during lentivirus infections. The studies set forth in this dissertation initiated investigations into the interactions of FIV and DC. …

Factors affecting replication and cross-species transmission of feline immunodeficiency virus
… co-receptor. The feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) infects diverse felid species including the African lion, where infection has likely been endemic since at least the late Pleistocene, and the domestic cat, a more recent host. For domestic cat strains of FIV (FIV-Fca), entry is mediated by …

The role of virus neutralisation in immunity to feline immunodeficiency virus infection
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is an important veterinary pathogen with comparative significance because of its similarities to its human counterpart HIV. Since FIV is the only non-primate lentivirus which induces AIDS-like symptoms in its natural host, it serves as a valuable animal model for …

Evaluating the Conservation of RNA Packaging Enhancer Elements Across Lentiviruses
… in similar regions of the SIVmac239 and FIV 34TF10 genomes were done to measure their impact on RNA packaging. No region across the gag-pol ORF of SIVmac239 had any impact on RNA packaging, and the deletion of the RFS in FIV 34TF10 had no impact either, although the RRE was disposable in …
