摘要：

Expression of CCR5, a major coreceptor for HIV-1 is regulated by a number of transcription factors. Here we report that DBP transcription factor binds to and transactivates CCR5 promoter and that overexpression of DBP enhances cell surface CCR5 expression. DBP activity is under circadian rhythm and appears to mediate circadian expression of CCR5. Circadian expression of CCR5 by DBP may play an important role in the pathogenesis of HIV-1 disease and influence efficacy of HIV-1 entry inhibitors targeting CCR5.
