A cell is infected with an HIV mutant that results in very little virus being released into the medium that is used to grow the cultured cells Upon electron microscopy it is noted that the membrane of the infected cell is idenitcal in appearance to a cell that has not been infected.

Viral Replication

The virus is acellular and considered non-living outside the host cell. The replication of the virus occurs only inside the living cells. Only a few genes are present in the smallest virus, whereas many genes are present in the largest virus. These genes encode specific viral proteins.
