S1 |
0-200 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Central nervous system-derived cells express a kappa B-binding activity that enhances human immunodeficiency virus type 1 transcription in vitro and facilitates TAR-independent transactivation by Tat. |
S2 |
201-333 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The Tat protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a potent activator of long terminal repeat-directed transcription. |
S3 |
334-536 |
Sentence |
denotes |
While in most cell types, activation requires interaction of Tat with the unusual transcription element TAR, astrocytic glial cells support TAR-independent transactivation of HIV-1 transcription by Tat. |
S4 |
537-789 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This alternative pathway of Tat activation is mediated by the viral enhancer, a kappa B domain capable of binding the prototypical form of the transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) present in many cell types, including T lymphocytes. |
S5 |
790-918 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Tat transactivation mediated by the kappa B domain is sufficient to allow replication of TAR-deleted mutant HIV-1 in astrocytes. |
S6 |
919-1075 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The present study demonstrates the existence of kappa B-specific binding factors present in human glial astrocytes that differ from prototypical NF-kappa B. |
S7 |
1076-1231 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The novel astrocyte-derived kappa B-binding activity is retained on an HIV-1 Tat affinity column, while prototypical NF-kappa B from Jurkat T cells is not. |
S8 |
1232-1439 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In vitro transcription studies demonstrate that astrocyte-derived kappa B-binding factors activate transcription of the HIV-1 long terminal repeat and that this activation is dependent on the kappa B domain. |
S9 |
1440-1615 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Moreover, TAR-independent transactivation of HIV-1 transcription is reproduced in vitro in an astrocyte factor-dependent manner which correlates with kappa B-binding activity. |
S10 |
1616-1750 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The importance of the central nervous system-enriched kappa B transcription factor in the regulation of HIV-1 expression is discussed. |
