additional information the recognition and precise cleavage of the polypurine tract of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is an essential step in HIV-1 reverse transcription. Mutations at positions 2 and 5 of the 3'-end of the polypurine tract do significantly alter the cleavage specificity at the polypurine tract/U3 junction. The structure of the polypurine tract primer, rather than the base-specific contacts between the polypurine tract and HIV-1 RT, are the primary determinants of RNase H cleavage specificity at the polypurine tract/U3 junction Human immunodeficiency virus 1 ?
