Figure 5. An excess of total DNA exists in a subset of patients receiving HAART.

Figure 5

Total (SST) and integrated DNA were measured in PBMC samples from patients on HAART. The numbers above each black bar represents the ratio of total DNA over integrated DNA. The boxed numbers indicate measurements that show a true excess of unintegrated HIV DNA. These ratios are greater than 2.58 standard deviations above the integration standard ratio for a p > 0.01. We measured 15,000 genomes per well to measure integration (7,500 cell equivalents). We measured 0.2– 2 × 106 cell equivalents for total, depending on sample availability. Error bars represent the standard deviation of 3 measurements of total DNA and 42 measurements of integrated DNA.
