Cooperative Interaction between HIV-1 Regulatory Proteins Tat and Vpr Modulates Transcription of the Viral Genome
1 Nov 2000
Abstract excerpt
The virion-associated protein of human immunodeficiency virus, type 1 (HIV-1), Vpr, is a small protein with 96 amino acid residues that has the ability to modulate transcription of HIV-1 long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter activity and affects several cellular functions. In this study we have employed molecular approaches to further investigate the mechanism by which Vpr exerts its regulatory effect upon the LTR....
