Beschreibung:
The human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV) types I and II have two nonstructural genes that are encoded in overlapping reading frames. One of these genes, known as tax, has been shown to encode a protein responsible for enhanced transcription (transactivation) from the viral long terminal repeats (LTRs). Genetic evidence indicates that the second nonstructural gene of HTLV-II, here designated rex, acts in trans to modulate tax gene-mediated transactivation in a concentration-dependent fashion. The rex gene may regulate the process of transactivation during the viral life cycle.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rosenblatt, J D -- Cann, A J -- Slamon, D J -- Smalberg, I S -- Shah, N P -- Fujii, J -- Wachsman, W -- Chen, I S -- 1 R01 CA 43370/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- 1K11 CA 01314/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 32737/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 May 13;240(4854):916-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, UCLA School of Medicine.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2834826" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
