Analysis of the EIAV Rev-responsive element (RRE) reveals a conserved RNA motif required for high affinity Rev binding in both HIV-1 and EIAV.

A cis-acting RNA regulatory element, the Rev-responsive element (RRE), has essential roles in replication of lentiviruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) and equine infection anemia virus (EIAV). The RRE binds the viral trans-acting regulatory protein, Rev, to mediate nucleocytoplasm...
