Abstract excerpt
The functional efficacy of the HIV-1 Rev protein is highly dependent on its ability to assemble onto its HIV-1 RNA target (the RRE) as a multimeric complex. To elucidate the mechanism of multimeric assembly, we have devised two rapid and broadly applicable strategies for examining cooperative interactions between proteins bound to RNA, one based on cooperative translational repression of a two-site reporter and...
