Identification of c-fos-responsive elements downstream of TAR in the long terminal repeat of human immunodeficiency virus type-1.
1 Sept 1993
Abstract excerpt
Activation of HIV-1 requires the binding of host cell transcription factors to cis elements in the proviral long terminal repeat (LTR). This study identifies c-fos-responsive sequence motifs in the U5 transcribed noncoding leader sequences downstream of the viral transactivator responsive (TAR) element. These DNA sequence motifs are the most downstream regulatory elements described thus far in the HIV-1 LTR....
