The substantial nucleic acid chaperone properties exhibited by Tat may account for its ability to promote the annealing of the primer tRNA to the viral RNA (Kameoka et al., 2002) and intervene in the first strand transfer (Boudier et al., 2010) and by this way, to stimulate RTion as does NCp7 (Harrich et al., 1997; Ulich et al., 1999; Apolloni et al., 2007) . Human immunodeficiency virus Type 1 nucleocapsid protein (NCp7) directs specific initiation of minusstrand DNA synthesis primed by human tRNA(Lys3) in vitro: studies of viral RNA molecules mutated in regions that flank the primer binding site ./cache/cord-260422-z22t57ju.txt ./txt/cord-260422-z22t57ju.txt
