organization of the proviral HIV genome (from Field's Virology, 3rd edition)
structural comparison of HIV's reverse transcriptase with an E. coli DNA polymerase fragment (from Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1994)
mechanism of reverse transcription (fig 5 from your "chapter" reading)
amended mechanism of reverse transcription, including central DNA flap (from Charneau et al, "HIV-1 Reverse Transcription: a termination step at the center of the genome." JMB (1994) 241, 651-662.
mechanism of HIV-1 integration (from Grandgenett and Mumm, "Unraveling Retrovirus Integration", Cell 60 (1990), pp 3-4)
expression of the HIV-1 genome (from the AIDS Knowledge Base, chapter 3 section 2, available online)
NOTE: The AIDS Knowledge Base is a very useful online reference and I highly recommend it. It is posted through the HIVInSite web site at UCSF, which I've had periodic trouble accessing. If you can get to it, though, it will be worth your while.
maturation of Env protin (from The Retroviridae, Vol 4, Plenum Press, NY. 1995. pg 205)
HIV-1 assembly and budding (ibid, pg 210)
