Megakaryocytic irreversible P-TEFb activation
Megakaryocyte development is particularly characterized by cellular enlargement and nuclear polyploidization, while erythroid development is characterized by cellular and nuclear atrophy, although both lineages originate from a common bipotential progenitor (MEP). The process of megakaryocyte enlargement and polyploidization, i.e., morphogenesis, is complex and controlled by tight regulation of...
متن کاملP‐TEFb goes viral
Positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), which comprises cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) kinase and cyclin T subunits, is an essential kinase complex in human cells. Phosphorylation of the negative elongation factors by P-TEFb is required for productive elongation of transcription of protein-coding genes by RNA polymerase II (pol II). In addition, P-TEFb-mediated phosphorylation of...
متن کاملTranscription elongation factor P-TEFb mediates Tat activation of HIV-1 transcription at multiple stages.
Tat stimulates human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transcription elongation through recognition of the transactivation response (TAR) RNA stem-loop structure at the 5' end of nascent viral transcripts. Recently, a human transcription elongation factor P-TEFb, consisting of CDK9 kinase, cyclin T and other associated factors, has been shown to interact with Tat to restore Tat activation i...
متن کاملP-TEFb kinase is required for HIV Tat transcriptional activation in vivo and in vitro.
To identify novel inhibitors of transcriptional activation by the HIV Tat protein, we used a combination of in vitro and in vivo Tat-dependent transcription assays to screen >100,000 compounds. All compounds identified blocked Tat-dependent stimulation of transcriptional elongation. Analysis of a panel of structurally diverse inhibitors indicated that their target is the human homolog of Drosop...
متن کاملActivation of P-TEFb by Androgen Receptor-Regulated Enhancer RNAs in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
The androgen receptor (AR) is required for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) progression, but the function and disease relevance of AR-bound enhancers remain unclear. Here, we identify a group of AR-regulated enhancer RNAs (e.g., PSA eRNA) that are upregulated in CRPC cells, patient-derived xenografts (PDXs), and patient tissues. PSA eRNA binds to CYCLIN T1, activates P-TEFb, and prom...
