Wortmannin Potentiates Integrase-Mediated Killing of Lymphocytes and Reduces the Efficiency of Stable Transduction by Retroviruses
1 Feb 2001
Abstract excerpt
Retroviral infection induces integrase-dependent apoptosis in DNA-PK-deficient murine scid lymphocytes. Furthermore, the efficiency of stable transduction of reporter genes is reduced in adherent cell lines that are deficient in cellular DNA-repair proteins known to mediate nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ), such as DNA-PK and XRCC4 (R. Daniel, R. A. Katz, and A. M. Skalka, Science 284:644-647, 1999). Here we...
