Functional analysis of human T lymphotropic virus type 2 Tax proteins [PDF]
Retrovirology, 2006 Background The Tax proteins encoded by human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and type 2 (HTLV-2) are transcriptional activators of both the viral long terminal repeat (LTR) and cellular promoters via the CREB and NFkB pathways. In contrast to HTLV-1,

Human T lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2: a point of view [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2013 Reported at the beginning of the 1980s, Human T lymphotropic viruses type 1 and 2 (HTLV1, HTLV 2) were the first retroviruses to have been detected in human beings. HTLV 1 was isolated from adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and first described by Takatsuki et al. in Japan in 1976, as a malignancy that only affects T cells and only in adults(1, 2).
