Culture supernatants of stable transfectants or immortalized PBMCs as indicated were assayed for p19 Gag.

*

Values less than 25 are below the sensitivity of the assay

5 × 106 729 cells were transfected by electroporation with 5 μg of control vector or the Rex expression vector pcRex (+ pcRex), as described in “Materials and methods.” Culture supernatants were assayed at 96 hours after transfection for Gag protein production by p19 Gag ELISA
