budding
The sixth of seven steps in the HIV life cycle. During budding, new HIV RNA and HIV proteins made by the host cell move to the surface of the host cell and assemble into an immature (noninfectious) HIV. After the immature HIV is formed, the virus pushes itself out of the host cell, taking with it part of the host cell’s outer membrane.
