What cells in the immune system are infected with HIV?
T-cells (a type of white blood cell)
Once HIV comes into contact with a T-cell, it must attach itself to the cell so that it can fuse with the cell and inject its genetic material (a blueprint for making more HIV) into it. Attachment is a specific binding between proteins on the surface of the virus and proteins that serve as receptors on the surface of the T-cell. Normally, these receptors help the cell communicate with other cells.

22. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV or AIDS virus): Human Immunodeficiency Virus: this illustration shows the external appearance of the virion. The virus is coated (enveloped) in host cell membrane, which is drawn as a bluish green semi transparent layer in which various membrane proteins can be seen floating. The viral knobs (golden projections at the viral surface) insert into the matrix. These knobs allow the virus to attach to cells.
