MeSH Heading: HIV Long Terminal Repeat
Tree Number(s): G02.111.570.080.708.850.400; G05.360.080.708.850.400
Unique ID: D016325
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016325
Scope Note: Regulatory sequences important for viral replication that are located on each end of the HIV genome. The LTR includes the HIV ENHANCER, promoter, and other sequences. Specific regions in the LTR include the negative regulatory element (NRE), NF-kappa B binding sites , Sp1 binding sites, TATA BOX, and trans-acting responsive element (TAR). The binding of both cellular and viral proteins to these regions regulates HIV transcription.
