Abstract
Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) contains a unique gene pX coding for p40 chi, and this protein was suggested to activate the transcription from the LTR of HTLV. By a similar mechanism, this viral function might be involved in immortalization of T-cells and leukemogenesis in adult T-cell leukemia induced by HTLV-I. In this communication, a part of the p40 chi was found to be tightly associated with nuclei in infected cell lines by subcellular fractionation and immunofluorescence staining.Entities:
