10. Preface
Why another book of HIV protocols? The question is sure to arise in the minds of
the readers. The AIDS epidemic continues unabated despite strong advances in thera-
peutics and an unprecedented level of efforts in vaccine development. Although some
of the reasons for the failure in AIDS control can be attributed to poor prevention
measures or paucity of antiretrovirals, a major drawback is the absence of efficacious,
potent antiretrovirals that can both suppress viral load completely and that do not
have toxic side effects. Toxicity can lead to nonadherence, which in turn results in
poor virus control, emergence of drug resistance and the eventual clinical drug fail-
ure. Development of novel drugs and vaccines require definition of new targets, bet-
ter definition of already known viral targets and understanding the interplay between
viral and host factors. Similarly, in order to develop an AIDS vaccine, we need to
be equipped with effective methods to measure immune response. More importantly,
these studies require the development of efficient and powerful in vitro and in vivo
systems to study viral replication and pathogenesis. Therefore, HIV researchers have
a real need for access to well-described, state-of-the-art methods to study HIV.
Approaches in HIV/AIDS investigation have continuously advanced in tune with
the evolution of modern experimental science. Development of new technologies in
investigating familiar aspects of HIV replication or immune response to it have led
to new insights that have improved our understanding of the biology of HIV. In
compiling this collection, our objective is threefold. First, we aim to document up-to-
date protocols available for select aspects of HIV biology. Second, we bring together
both virological and immunological approaches in a single volume. Third, we provide
a comprehensive account of techniques that are not already part of an existing HIV
protocol book.
HIV Protocols, Second Edition, is organized into five sections. Section I delin-
eates the methods to isolate full-length DNA clones of HIV-1 from patient samples,
isolation of HIV-1 particles free of contaminating cellular proteins and a method to
titer these virus particles. Section II delineates the study of early and late events. Early
events include entry, reverse transcription, nuclear transport, integration as well as
recombination, a process that occurs during reverse transcription. A thorough study
of early events would be incomplete without the analysis of complexes formed during
reverse transcription and prior to integration as well as the interaction between viral
and host proteins within these complexes. In the subsection on late events, we take
you through methods to study assembly and particle production within the producer
cells and the use of cell free systems to study the interaction of viral proteins and
nucleic acids including the cognate tRNALys,3.
No HIV-1 investigation is complete without the analysis of the dynamics of host-
virus interactions. HIV-1, being an intra-cellular parasite, not only invades the host,
but also subverts cellular antiviral mechanisms and hijacks host proteins for its own
purposes. Section III explores approaches to investigate the interplay between the
v
11. vi Preface
host and the virus by employing genetic, molecular and cellular techniques including
novel small animal models. Methods to investigate specific, immunological techniques
to understanding host-HIV-1 interplay are discussed in Section IV. Chapters in this
section delineate methods to study mucosal immunity, T-cell responses and antiviral
responses in cell culture and in Rhesus monkey models.
The last section of the book delves into the intense battle between the host and
the HIV-1. The virus continues to evade antiretrovirals owing to its ability to develop
drug resistance and its baffling ability to evolve and escape the immune system. The
chapters included should facilitate investigations of drug resistant viruses and virus
evolution.
We would like to draw the readers’ attention to the Notes sections in each chapter.
These notes come from the experts who have used these methods successfully many
times and contain many ‘tricks’ and little details that are rarely mentioned in standard
protocols. We find them to be a unique aspect of the Methods in Molecular Biology
series.
We would like to thank Humana Press for the opportunity to edit this book, the
series editor, Dr. John Walker, for his continuous support and guidance and David
Casey of Humana Press for his patience and support. We extend our sincerest gratitude
to all contributors for their submission of critical contributions to this collection. The
advice of Dr. Barbara Shacklett of the University of California, Davis in the selection
of immunological topics is specially acknowledged. The administrative assistance of
Ms. Emilia Ortiz in the production of the book went beyond the call of duty and we
are thankful to her. We also wish to express our gratitude to our graduate students,
post-doctoral fellows and other close colleagues at Einstein who helped with editing
the book for scientific content (Dhivya Ramalingam, Elizabeth Hanna Luke, Sonald
Duclair and Vasudev Rao) or for style (Andrea Provost, Aviva Joseph) and in the
beta testing and improving of the subject index (Chisanga Lwatula, James Gaudette,
Jennifer Cano, Melissa Smith, SeungJae Lee, Sheeba Mathew, Sohrab Khan, Supratik
Das).

Methods for Viral RNA Isolation and PCR Amplification
for Sequencing of Near Full-Length HIV-1 Genomes
Kimdar Sherefa Kemal, Milan Reinis, Barbara Weiser, and Harold Burger
Abstract
HIV-1 in plasma represents the viral quasispecies replicating in the patient at any given time. Studies of
HIV-1 viral RNA from plasma or other body fluids therefore reflect the virus present in real time. To
obtain near full-length genomic sequences derived from virion RNA it is first necessary to carefully isolate
and amplify the RNA.
The procedure described below, involves viral RNA extraction, reverse transcription (RT) of the
extracted RNA to produce cDNA copies, and PCR amplification of long HIV-1 gene fragments using
site-specific, overlapping primers. The primers are based on subtype B HIV-1 strains, and plasma speci-
mens are used in the procedures. However, the protocol can easily be adapted to other HIV-1 subtypes
by modifying the primers to match the subtype of interest.
Key words: HIV-1, HIV-1 viral RNA, HIV-1 primers, Long RT-PCR amplification of HIV-1.
1. Introduction
HIV-1 infection is characterized by continuous replication of
∼ 9 kb RNA genomes resulting in a viral swarm of closely related
molecules called quasispecies (1, 2). Sequence variation is a hall-
mark of lentivirus infection; surviving viral species reflect replica-
tion and selection (3). When studying the relationship between
HIV-1 sequences and pathogenesis, it is highly desirable to ana-
lyze the complete HIV-1 genome because variability in multiple
regions of the genome may play a role in pathogenesis and virus–
host interactions (4–6). Full-length HIV-1 sequencing provides
essential data needed to address vaccine design and molecular
epidemiology (7, 8). Full-length sequence analysis also helps to
identify the presence of dual infections and recombination in vivo

(9–11). Furthermore, knowledge of the complete genomic HIV-
1 RNA sequence and HLA type of the infected individual makes
it possible, with the use of an immunologic database (http://hiv-
web.lanl.gov/content/immunology/index), to predict cytotoxic
T-cell epitopes encoded by the virus (4,5).
HIV-1 in plasma represents the replicating virus population
at any given time; by contrast, proviral DNA, integrated in cel-
lular genomes, represents a repository of older sequences, the
majority of which have been shown to lack replication compe-
tence (12,13).
Amplification of a full-length HIV-1 genome requires careful
step-by-step procedures involving viral RNA extraction, synthesis
of cDNA copies of the viral RNA (RT-PCR), PCR amplification
of target gene fragments using specific primers, and the purifica-
tion of the amplified PCR products for further analyses. Successful
amplification of a near full-length HIV-1 viral RNA depends on
several factors, including viral RNA load in the specimen, quality
of specimen, viral RNA isolation methods used, cDNA synthesis
from RNA using RT-PCR, primer selection, and PCR amplifica-
tion conditions (6, 9, 14–17). The quality of the specimen, such
as plasma, is directly affected by factors such as storage temper-
ature, repeated freezing and thawing, and general handling of
the specimen from initial processing to the RNA extraction steps.
Although we cannot rule out the possibility of amplifying full-
length HIV-1 genomes from specimens with viral loads as low as
5,000 copies/mL, we recommend using samples with viral loads
of at least 10,000 copies/mL. Specimens should be aliquoted into
1 mL volume and stored at temperatures below −80 ◦C. Repeated
freeze and thaw steps need to be avoided (see Note 1 ).

3. Methods
HIV-1 viral RNA isolation is one of the critical steps for the
success of the rest of the procedures. RNA should always be han-
dled with care; gloves should be worn at all times to help elim-
inate the introduction of endonucleases. It is important to work
in an RNase-free environment and use RNase-free reagents. Work
should be done in a Bio-safety level 2 (BSL-2) laminar flow hood;
RNA isolation areas should be separate from DNA or PCR ampli-
fication areas in the lab. It is also important to have dedicated
pipettes for RNA isolation. If this is not possible, always clean the
hood and the pipettes with RNase and DNA contaminant remov-
ing reagents and turn on the UV light, in the laminar flow hood,
for 20–30 min after use. To increase viral recovery, we suggest pel-
leting the plasma virions in siliconized microfuge tubes. We also
recommend using 0.5–1.0 mL sample volumes, particularly if the
viral load is low ( 10, 000 copies/mL). When available, 1 mL is
preferred. Using this method, RNA for full-length amplification
can be recovered from plasma samples with viral loads as little as
5,000 RNA copies/mL (see Note 3 ).

3.1. RNA Extractions
3.1.1. Beginning
1. Clarify plasma by spinning at 400 × g, at room temperature,
for 10 min (see Note 4 ).
2. Transfer the plasma to sterile, siliconized, 1.5 mL microfuge
tubes.
3. To pellet virions, centrifuge the plasma 18, 500 × g, at 10 ◦C,
for 90 min.
4. Remove most of the now virion-free plasma without disturb-
ing the pellet (see Note 5 ).
5. To extract virion-associated RNA, re-suspend the pellet in
300 μL pre-chilled denaturing solution.
6. Vortex the pellet until it is completely dissolved. This usually
takes 5–10 min (see Note 6 ).
7. Mix in order: 1 μL yeast tRNA (1 μg/μL), 1 μL glycogen
(2 μg/μL) and 30 μL of 2 M sodium acetate, pH 4.0 (see
Note 7 ).
8. Add 32 μL of the above mixture into each tube, and then add
0.5 mL phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol solution, being
careful to remove only from the lower organic phase (see
Note 8 ).
9. Vortex for 10 s, then chill on ice for 20 min.
10. Centrifuge at 18, 500 × g for 20 min, at 4 ◦C.
11. Transfer the top phase, which contains the RNA, to fresh
microfuge tubes (see Note 9 ).
12. To precipitate the RNA, add an equal volume of isopropanol
(0.3–0.5 mL) and keep the tubes at −20 ◦C for at least 2 h
(see Note 10 ).
25. 8 Kemal et al.
3.1.2. After 2 h or the
Next Day
1. Pellet the RNA by centrifugation at 18, 500 × g for 30 min at
4 ◦C. Discard the supernatant.
2. Re-suspend the RNA pellet in 200 μL denaturing solution.
Vortex until RNA is dissolved; usually 1 min is enough.
3. Add 300 μL isopropanol and precipitate the RNA at −20 ◦C
for at least 2 h.
4. After 2 h, pellet the RNA by centrifugation at 18, 500 × g for
25 min at 4 ◦C.
5. Wash the pellet, once with 1 mL and then with 0.5 mL of 75%
ice-cold ethanol, by centrifugation at 18, 500 × g for 20 min
at 4 ◦C each time. During each wash break up the pellet by
using RNase-free pipette tips before each centrifugation; do
not vortex (see Note 11 ).
6. Air-dry the pellet for 5–20 min, depending on the amount of
ethanol left in the tubes or the size of the pellet.
7. Dissolve the RNA in 25 μL nuclease-free water by using the
pipette tips. Do not vortex (see Note 12 ).
8. Store the RNA at −20 ◦C until use. For long-term use store at
−80 ◦C.
3.2. Reverse
Transcription PCR
(RT-PCR)
The procedure used for RT-PCR is essential for synthesis of a long
cDNA. The procedure is given below, with details of the reagents
given in Tables 1.2 and 1.3. There are a number of commer-
cial kits available for RT-PCR and each laboratory has its own
preferences. The method described here uses the SuperScript
TM
III First-Strand Synthesis System for RT-PCR kit (Invitrogen).
SuperScript
TM
III Reverse Transcriptase enzyme is used to syn-
thesize cDNA at the temperature range of 42–55 ◦C, providing
increased specificity, higher yields of cDNA, and more full-length
product than other reverse transcriptase enzymes (see Note 13 ).
We recommend using oligo(dT) primer, as it is more specific and
allows the synthesis of full-length cDNA fragments.
1. Prepare RNA/Primer master mix which includes oligo(dT)20
and the dNTP mix according to Table 1.2.
2. Dispense 10 μL of the master mix into each tube.

Fine Arts), p. 377 and note. In A Selection from the
Correspondence of the late Macvey Napier, Esq. (1879), p.
21, there is the following letter from Hazlitt to Napier:—
‘Winterslow Hut, near Salisbury,
‘August 26, 1818.
‘My dear Sir,—I am sorry to be obliged, from want of health
and a number of other engagements, which I am little able
to perform, to decline the flattering offer you make me. I
have got to write, between this and the end of October, an
octavo volume or a set of lectures on the Comic Drama of
this country for the Surrey Institution, which I am anxious

not to slur over, and it will be as much as I can do to get it
ready in time. I am also afraid that I should not be able to
do the article in question, or yourself, justice, for I am not
only without books, but without knowledge of what books
are necessary to be consulted on the subject. To get up an
article in a Review on any subject of general literature is
quite as much as I can do without exposing myself. The
object of an Encyclopædia is, I take it, to condense and
combine all the facts relating to a subject, and all the
theories of any consequence already known or advanced.
Now, where the business of such a work ends, is just where
I begin, that is, I might perhaps throw in an idle
speculation or two of my own, not contained in former
accounts of the subject, and which would have very little
pretensions to rank as scientific. I know something about
Congreve, but nothing at all of Aristophanes, and yet I
conceive that the writer of an article on the Drama ought to
be as well acquainted with the one as the other. If you
should see Mr. Constable, will you tell him I am writing
nonsense for him as fast as I can?—Your very humble
servant,
W. HAZLITT.’

Constable.
