LP191940-8   HIV proviral
When HIV-1 enters a cell it first is changed into an inactive HIV-1 DNA provirus. The HIV-1 provirus combines with the host cell DNA. When the host cell replicates, the HIV-1 provirus also is replicated which ensures its continued survival.https://aidsinfo.nih.gov/understanding-hiv-aids/glossary/608/provirus The quantitative determination of proviral HIV-1 DNA load is determined for antiretroviral treatment, particularly when HIV-1 RNA levels drop below the detectable limits during treatment. PMID: 11283046 HIV-1 proviral DNA is also a diagnostic marker for HIV-1 infections in newborns born to HIV-1 seropositive women. PMID: 16973410 Source: Regenstrief LOINC
