Revision as of 11:56, 31 October 2018 by Michal Harel (talk | contribs)


Function

Negative elongation factor (NELF) induces RNA polymerase II promoter proximal pausing and limits provirus expression in HIV-infected T cells[1].

Disease

NELF has been implicated in various diseases ranging from neurological disorders to cancer[2].
