The HIV-1 vpu-env bicistronic mRNA. A schematic diagram of the HIV-1 provirus genome is presented along with its primary 9 kb mRNA transcript. The vpu-env bicistronic mRNA is formed after splicing of the 9 kb mRNA. Start codon sequences of both vpu and env ORFs are presented and the upstream ORF that stimulates Env translation is boxed in green.
