TY - JOUR A1 - Rethwilm, Axel A1 - Mori, Kazuyasu A1 - Maurer, Bernd A1 - ter Meulen, Volker T1 - Transacting transcriptional activation of human spumaretrovirus LTR in infected cells N2 - The long terminal repeat (LTR) of the human spumaretrovirus (HSRV) was examined with respect to its ability to function as transcriptional promotor in virus-infected and uninfected cells. Transient transfections using a plasmid in which the 3' L TR of HSRV was coupled to the bacterial chloramphenicol cetyltransferase (cat) gene revealed that the Ievei of HSRV LTR-directed cat gene expression was markedly increased in HSRV-infected cells compared to uninfected cells. Northern blot analysis of cat mRNA from transfected cultures suggests that transactivation of HSRVdirected gene expression occurs at the transcriptionallevel.
