    Abstract

    The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) long terminal repeat (LTR) contains binding sites for several host transcription factors that contribute to HIV-1 gene expression. Although previous reports have indicated that HIV-1 Nef positively or negatively regulates HIV-1 gene expression, the precise molecular mechanisms by which this occurs remain largely unknown. In this study, we report that Nef suppressed LTR-driven transcription only in the presence of HIV-1 Tat, which was localized to the cytoplasm and degraded by the proteasome. However, the depletion of Hsp70 was found to reduce the suppressive effect of Nef on HIV-1 gene expression. These results suggest that Nef suppresses Hsp70-mediated HIV-1 Tat activation.

      • Related Citations
        Calculated set of PubMed citations closely related to the selected article(s) retrieved using a word weight algorithm. Related articles are displayed in ranked order from most to least relevant, with the “linked from” citation displayed first.
      • Gene
        Gene records that cite the current articles. Citations in Gene are added manually by NCBI or imported from outside public resources.
      • Gene (GeneRIF)
        Gene records that have the current articles as Reference into Function citations (GeneRIFs). NLM staff reviewing the literature while indexing MEDLINE add GeneRIFs manually.
      • Nucleotide (Weighted)
        Nucleotide records associated with the current articles through the Gene database. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.
      • Protein (RefSeq)
        NCBI protein Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that are cited in the current articles, included in the corresponding Gene Reference into Function, or that include the PubMed articles as references.
      • Protein (Weighted)
        Protein records associated with the current articles through related Gene database records. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.
      • Taxonomy via GenBank
        Taxonomy records associated with the current articles through taxonomic information on related molecular database records (Nucleotide, Protein, Gene, SNP, Structure).
      • Cited in PMC
