Human Immunodeficiency Virus

HIV is a lentivirus that causes HIV infection and over time acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. AIDS is a condition in humans in which progressive failure of the immune system allows life-threatening opportunistic infections and cancers to thrive. 

Many species are infected by lentiviruses, which are responsible for long duration illnesses with a long incubation period. Lentiviruses are transmitted as single stranded, positive sense, envelopes RNA viruses. The viral RNA genome is converted into double stranded DNA by a virally encoded reverse transcriptase that is transported along with the viral genome in the virus particle.
