Retrovirus replication involves attachment to CD4+ cells, reverse transcription of RNA to DNA, integration into host DNA, replication of viral proteins, virion assembly, and budding.
La replicación del retrovirus implica la unión a células CD4+, transcriptasa inversa, integración en el ADN del huésped, replicación de proteínas virales, ensamblaje y gemación.
