Abstract excerpt
The avian Rev-T retrovirus encodes the oncoprotein v-Rel, a member of the Rel/nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB transcription factor family. The aggressive oncogenic potential of v-Rel has arisen from multiple mutations within the coding sequence of the avian cellular protein c-Rel. In this study, using quantitative biochemical experiments, we have tested the role of a limited set of alterations between v-Rel and c-Rel...
