Ranscription units (Han et al., 2004; Lewinski et al., 2005). In the present work, we extended this knowledge by a detailed analysis of how TI impacts viral transcription in latent cells. Although TI occurs regardless of the orientation of the two promoters, we studied TI phenomenon in two J-Lat cell lines with the same orientation of the host and viral promoters, which allowed us to detect and an

Tiful in genes and they are recognized by the spliceosome when there is no stronger splice site downstream of them, such aberrant splicing probably takes place in many cases of integration of the viral genome. On one hand, these transcripts reflected active transcription upstream of the provirus in both J-Lat cell lines. On the other hand, LTR sequence in the transcripts enabled us to use them as

T the level of gene expression act cooperatively to establish and maintain HIV latency. In conclusion, our study reveals that TI represents a key mechanism that antagonizes proviral gene expression to promote the latency of HIV. Furthermore, it demonstrates several means that could be used to counteract TI for reactivating latent HIV. Future mechanistic studies linking TI and other transcriptional
Ed cells. Furthermore, TNF- stimulation led to the appearance of Sp1 and initiating RNAPII on the 5'LTR and additional enrichments of initiating and elongating RNAPII on the 3'LTR. These effects are most likely achieved through the activation of NF-B, which stimulates several steps of viral transcription including the PIC formation, transcription initiation and transcription elongation. Thus, our
