HIV Replication in Cells Diagram

An illustrative diagram detailing the intricate process of HIV replication within a host cell, beginning with viral entry through membrane fusion. The cycle continues with reverse transcription of viral RNA into DNA, its subsequent integration into the host genome as a provirus, and then transcription and export of viral RNA. New viral proteins are translated and transported, leading to the assembly and encapsulation of new viral particles in the cytoplasm, which then bud from the cell to perpetuate the infection.
