Modulation of microtubule assembly by the HIV-1 Tat protein is strongly dependent on zinc binding to Tat
BACKGROUND: During HIV-1 infection, the Tat protein plays a key role by transactivating the transcription of the HIV-1 proviral DNA. In addition, Tat induces apoptosis of non-infected T lymphocytes, leading to a massive loss of immune competence. This apoptosis is notably mediated by the interaction...
