Journal ArticleDOI
Flavopiridol inhibits P-TEFb and blocks HIV-1 replication.
Sheng-Hao Chao,Koh Fujinaga,Jon E. Marion,Ran Taube,Edward A. Sausville,Adrian M. Senderowicz,B. Matija Peterlin,David H. Price +7 more
TL;DR: Flavopiridol found that the flavonoid potently inhibited transcription by RNA polymerase II in vitro by blocking the transition into productive elongation, a step controlled by P-TEFb.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Transcription: P-TEFb Phosphorylates RD and Dissociates Negative Effectors from the Transactivation Response Element
Koh Fujinaga,Koh Fujinaga,Dan Irwin,Yehong Huang,Ran Taube,Takeshi Kurosu,B. Matija Peterlin +6 more
TL;DR: The transition from abortive to productive transcription and thus replication of HIV is defined and a mutant RD protein that mimics its phosphorylated form no longer binds TAR nor represses HIV transcription is defined.
Journal ArticleDOI
SARS-CoV-2 spike variants exhibit differential infectivity and neutralization resistance to convalescent or post-vaccination sera.
Alona Kuzmina,Yara Khalaila,Olga Voloshin,Ayelet Keren-Naus,Liora Boehm-Cohen,Yael Raviv,Yonat Shemer-Avni,Elli Rosenberg,Ran Taube +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, neutralization potency of convalescent or Pfizer-BTN162b2 post-vaccination sera against pseudoviruses displaying spike proteins derived from wild-type SARS-CoV-2, or its UK-B.1.7 and SA-B1.351 variants were monitored.
MINIREVIEW Tat Transactivation: A Model for the Regulation of Eukaryotic Transcriptional Elongation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present genetic and biochemical evidence that supports the current model of hTAT transactivation in HIV-1, which is based on the cyclin subunit of the positive elongation actor (TEFb).
Journal ArticleDOI
Tat transactivation: a model for the regulation of eukaryotic transcriptional elongation.
TL;DR: After a iscussion of other lentiviral Tat proteins, which recruit -TEFb by slightly different mechanisms, Tat transactivaion is placed into the context of eukaryotic transcription.
