Abstract excerpt
Human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV) Tax protein has been implicated in the HTLV oncogenic process, primarily due to its pleiotropic effects on cellular genes involved in growth regulation and cell cycle control. To date, several approaches attempting to correlate Tax activation of the CREB/activating transcription factor (ATF) or NFkappaB/Rel transcriptional activation pathway to cellular transformation have...
