Gene transfer using replication-defective human foamy virus vectors. (1997)
Bieniasz, P D, Erlwein, O, Aguzzi, A, Rethwilm, A, McClure, M O
Replication-defective vectors based on an infectious molecular clone of human foamy virus (HFV) were constructed by deletion and replacement of the accessory genes with expression cassettes for...
Cell cycle dependence of foamy retrovirus infection.
Bieniasz, P D, Weiss, R A, McClure, M O
In common with oncoviruses but unlike the lentivirus human immunodeficiency virus type 1, foamy (spuma) viruses require host cell proliferation for productive infection. We show that human...
Takeuchi, Y, Liong, S H, Bieniasz, P D, Jäger, U, Porter, C D, Friedman, T, ...
Vesicular stomatitis virus, human immunodeficiency virus type 2, and human foamy virus, which were produced by cell lines expressing galactosyl(alpha1-3)galactosyl (alphaGal) sugars, were found to be...
Human foamy virus reverse transcription that occurs late in the viral replication cycle.
Moebes, A, Enssle, J, Bieniasz, P D, Heinkelein, M, Lindemann, D, Bock, M, ...
Foamy viruses (FVs) are retroid viruses which use a replication strategy unlike those of other retroviruses and hepadnaviruses (S. F. Yu, D. N. Baldwin, S. R. Gwynn, S. Yendapilli, and M. L. Linial,...
Isolation of a new foamy retrovirus from orangutans.
McClure, M O, Bieniasz, P D, Schulz, T F, Chrystie, I L, Simpson, G, Aguzzi, A, ...
We have isolated a new foamy virus from blood samples taken from two apparently healthy orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus). The older orangutan has since died with encephalopathy after a brief acute...
Human immunodeficiency virus infection of CD4-bearing cells occurs by a pH-independent mechanism.
McClure, M O, Marsh, M, Weiss, R A
The effect of weak bases (NH4Cl and amantadine) and carboxylic ionophores (monensin) on the infection of CD4 (T4) positive human cell lines by HIV-1 is examined. These reagents, which raise the pH of...
Antigen capture ELISA for the heat shock protein (hsp60) of Chlamydia trachomatis.
Horner, P J, Ali, M, Parker, D, Weber, J N, Taylor-Robinson, D, McClure, M O
AIMS: To develop an indirect ELISA using the heat shock protein (hsp60) of Chlamydia trachomatis as antigen. METHODS: The hsp60 gene was amplified by PCR, expressed in the vector pDEV-107 and...

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) genetic diversity is a major obstacle for the design of a successful vaccine. Certain viral polymorphisms encode human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-associated...

OBJECTIVES: To examine the change in uptake of interventions to reduce transmission of HIV from mothers to infants from January 1994 to July 1997. DESIGN: Review of mother-infant pairs who presented...
