Abstract
This invention describes stable tat.sub.III cell lines. It is disclosed that by transfecting a preselected tat.sub.III cell line with a vector containing a sufficient amount of the HTLV-III LTR responsive to tat.sub.III gene products for trans-activation and an enhancer upstream of the tat.sub.III responsive segment, it is possible to express high levels of the tat.sub.III gene products. By including a preselected heterologous gene on this vector, it is also possible to express high levels of a desired gene product. A substantially pure protein comprising 86 amino acids and having an apparent molecular weight of about 14,000 dalton and exhibiting trans-activating activity is also disclosed. This protein and polypeptides having trans-activating ability, which is also disclosed, can be used to produce high levels of a desired gene product. A method of detecting the presence of HTLV-III/LAV virus in an individual is also disclosed and comprises the step of:
