Question:
How many DNA or in a HIV virus?
i'm thinking of seven but my brother told me it's 9 so i'm not sure?
Answers:
Sounds like you're asking how many genes are in an HIV virus.
Your brother is right - it's nine: gag, pol, env, tat, rev, nef, vif, vpr and vpu. Occasional isolates have a tenth - tev.

HIV's genetic code is RNA, not DNA.
