Abstract:
The invention includes methods for determining the presence of a latent viral population by analyzing an RNA population from the virus with digital techniques, such as digital PCR or by sequencing cDNA produced from the RNA. The invention additional includes methods for determining the presence of latent viral populations by detecting and/or quantifying enzymes that are uniquely associated with the virus, e.g., reverse transcriptases.
