Abstract Background The 5 untranslated region UTR or leader sequence of simian immunodeficiency virus SIVmac239 is multifunctional and harbors the regulatory elements for viral replication persistence gene translation expression and the packaging and dimerization of viral genomic RNA vRNA . We have constructed a series of deletions in the SIVmac239 leader sequence in order to determine the involvement of this region in both the packaging and dimerization of viral genomic RNA. We also assessed the impact of these deletions upon viral infectiousness replication kinetics and gene expression in cell lines and monkey peripheral blood mononuclear cells PBMC . Results Regions on both sides of the major splice donor SD were found to be necessary for the efficiency and specificity of viral genome packaging. However stem-loop1 is critical for both RNA .
