Heterogeneity of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription Binding Sites in the Long-Terminal Repeats of Distinct HIV-1 Subtypes

Fig. (1) STAT putative binding site are present in the LTR of different HIV-1 subtypes. Alignment of the HIV 3’LTR sequences of subtype A through G and G”: putative STAT DNA binding sites are boxed. Underlined are NF-κB and Sp1 binding sites. Reference STAT5 binding consensus sequence: TTC (N3) GAA [46].
