Sarkar S, Gilmore T D
Abstract excerpt
The vRel oncoprotein of the avian Rev-T retrovirus is a member of the Rel/NF-kappa B family of transcription factors. The highly conserved amino-terminal Rel Homology (RH) domain in these proteins is required for DNA binding, protein-protein interactions and nuclear localization, and many mutatio...
