Chapter 21.5, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction
To write:
Description of the effect of HIV on immune system and explanation to the three categories of HIV infection.
Introduction:
HIV attacks the immune system targeting the CD4+ T cells. The virus not only kills but also integrates into these cells overpowering the host’s immune system. This makes the host unable to fight infections if untreated. The HIV infection begins with an early acute infection progressing to a chronic stage which might culminate in the final form of AIDS.

4. What type of mutation is this?
5. Repeat steps 1 & 2.
6. How has this change affected the amino acid sequence?
7. Now remove nucleotides 13 through 15.
8. Repeat steps 1 & 2.
9. What type of mutation is this?
0. Do all mutations result in a change in the amino acid
sequence?

2. The above sequence codes for a genetic disorder called
cystic fibrosis (CF).
