Name the cells that acts as HIV factory in humans when infected by HIV. Explain the events that occur in these infected cells.

Answer»

Macrophages act as HIV factory in human. 

Once the virus enters the human body the virus / viral genome infects macrophages where its RNA genome replicates, to form viral DNA. With the help of the enzyme reverse transcriptase, this viral DNA gets incorporated into host cell’s DNA, and directs the infected cells to produce virus particles.
