🗑
In HIV the DNA can become integrated into the chromosome of host to form a   provirus  
🗑
integration of viral DNA into host chromosome requires the enzyme ___   integrase  
🗑
HIV exit the host cell by   budding  
🗑
what causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome   loss of helper T lymphocytes and imbalance within the immune system leaving host subject to infection of many pathogens  
🗑
