Regulation of human immunodeficiency virus Nef protein by phosphorylation. 1994

Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.

Human immunodeficiency virus isolates express a Nef protein with either an alanine or a threonine at amino acid residue 15. The threonine residue is a site for phosphorylation by protein kinase C. Jurkat T cells constitutively expressing the alanine variant of Nef exhibit the ability to downregulate the induction of transcription factors NF-kB and AP-1. In contrast, Jurkat cells with the threonine variant of Nef are at least partially restored in their ability to recruit NF-kB and AP-1.

D006678	HIV	Human immunodeficiency virus. A non-taxonomic and historical term referring to any of two species, specifically HIV-1 and/or HIV-2. Prior to 1986, this was called human T-lymphotropic virus type III/lymphadenopathy-associated virus (HTLV-III/LAV). From 1986-1990, it was an official species called HIV. Since 1991, HIV was no longer considered an official species name; the two species were designated HIV-1 and HIV-2.
