Novel perspectives on antisense transcription in HIV-1, HTLV-1, and HTLV-2. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Microbiol, 2022
The genome of retroviruses contains two promoter elements (called long terminal repeat or LTR) at the 5′ and 3′ end of their genome. Although the expression of retroviral genes generally depends on the promoter located in the 5′ LTR, the 3′ LTR also has promoter activity responsible for producing antisense transcripts.

Interplay between the HTLV-2 Tax and APH-2 proteins in the regulation of the AP-1 pathway

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2012
Background In contrast with human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) that causes ATL (adult T-cell leukemia), HTLV-2 has not been causally linked to malignant disease.

HTLV-1/2 Infection in Blood Donors from a Non-Endemic Area (Catalonia, Spain) between 2008 and 2017: A 10-Year Experience

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) screening is not mandatory in Spanish blood banks. In Catalonia, selective screening was introduced in 2008, followed by universal screening in 2011.

Anti-HTLV-1/2 IgG Antibodies in the Breastmilk of Seropositive Mothers

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Background: HTLV-1/2 mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) is an important route for the maintenance of HTLV-1/2 within populations and disproportionally contributes to the burden of HTLV-1-associated diseases.
