HT-TALENS (HIV-targeted transcription activator-like effector nucleases) is an engineered plant protein that is a proposed cure for AIDS. == AIDS == The HIV genome is made from RNA rather than DNA. The enzyme that converts RNA to DNA and then inserts it into a cell makes between one and 10 mistakes every time it copies itself. This high error rate means that the virus population that inhabits each HIV patients is genetically diverse.
