Molecular dynamics simulation and experimental verification of the interaction between cyclin T1 and HIV-1 Tat proteins.
The viral encoded Tat protein is essential for the transcriptional activation of HIV proviral DNA. Interaction of Tat with a cellular transcription elongation factor P-TEFb containing CycT1 is critically required for its action. In this study, we performed MD simulation using the 3D data for wild-ty...
