Rabbit Anti-HIV TAT specific factor 1/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
The protein encoded by this gene functions as a cofactor for the stimulation of transcriptional elongation by HISLV1 Tat, which binds to the HISLV1 promoter through Tat-TAR interaction. This protein may also serve as a dual-function factor to couple transcription and splicing and to facilitate their reciprocal activation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
Function:
HIV TAT specific factor(a.k.a. HTATSF1, Tat-SF1 or HTSF1) is an 86 kDa general transcription factor that plays a role in the process of transcription elongation. However, in HISLVinfected cells, this factor is up-regulated by HIV Nef and gp120 and acts as a co-factor for the Tat-enhanced transcription of the HIV virus.
