Abstract excerpt
Transcription of the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) genome is controlled by cooperative interaction of viral encoded proteins and host regulatory proteins. In this study, we have examined the capacity of the viral auxiliary protein, Vpr, to modulate transcriptional activity of the HIV-1 promoter sequence located within the long terminal repeat (LTR). We demonstrate that ectopic expression of Vpr in...
