ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns the use of oligonucleotides to inhibit propagation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Preferred HIV target sites are identified and oligonucleotides designed to hybridize to a target site, or be analogous to a target site, are described. The preferred use of the oligonucleotides is to inhibit HIV propagation in a patient infected with HIV.
