Document 0484 DOCN M9550484 TI Elements in the long terminal repeat of HIV-1 that interact with nuclear extracts from Jurkat cells persistently infected with vaccinia virus. DT 9505 AU Chang PY; Stellrecht K; Melana S; Pogo BG; Department of Microbiology, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New; York, NY 10029. SO Virus Res. 1994 Nov;34(2):127-38. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/95159659 AB Previous reports showed transactivation of the long terminal repeat (LTR) of HIV-1 in Jurkat cells persistently infected with vaccinia virus. In this communication, electrophoretic mobility shift assays were used to characterize the elements in HIV-1 LTR which might be responsible for the mechanism of transactivation. The results indicated that two elements, those for binding NF-kB and NFAT-1, were able to interact with nuclear extracts derived from Jurkat cells persistently infected with vaccinia virus, suggesting that they may play a role in the transactivation of HIV-1 LTR.
