The HIV-1 transactivator protein, Tat, is an atypical transcriptional activator that functions through binding, not to DNA, but to a short leader RNA, TAR. Although details of its functional mechanism are still unknown, emerging findings suggest that Tat serves primarily to adapt co-activator complexes such as p300, PCAF and P-TEFb to the HIV-1 long terminal repeat. Hence, an understanding of ... [more]
