Other Information

**Key Characteristics** POLR2K is a subunit of RNA polymerase II, which is a multi-subunit enzyme composed of five polypeptides (RPA1, RPB1, RPB2, RPB3, and RPB5). POLR2K is specifically involved in the transcriptional regulation of HIV-1 and has been shown to interact with other proteins, such as the HIV-1 transactivator protein (Tat), to facilitate viral transcription. POLR2K is also involved in the regulation of cellular gene expression, particularly in the context of gene silencing and the processing of pre-mRNA. **Pathways and Functions** POLR2K is involved in various cellular pathways, including: 1. **Transcriptional regulation**: POLR2K plays a key role in the regulation of gene expression, particularly in the context of HIV-1 transcription. It interacts with other proteins, such as Tat, to facilitate viral transcription. 2. **Cell cycle regulation**: POLR2K is involved in the regulation of the cell cycle, particularly in the context of DNA repair and chromatin maintenance. 3. **DNA repair**: POLR2K is involved in the repair of DNA damage, particularly in the context of nucleotide excision repair (NER) and mismatch repair. 4. **Chromatin maintenance**: POLR2K is involved in the maintenance of chromatin structure and function, particularly in the context of histone modification and epigenetic regulation. 5. **HIV-1 life cycle**: POLR2K is specifically involved in the regulation of HIV-1 transcription and has been implicated in the development of HIV-1 resistance to antiretroviral therapy. **Clinical Significance** POLR2K has significant clinical implications, particularly in the context of HIV-1 infection and cancer. Studies have shown that POLR2K is involved in the regulation of HIV-1 transcription and that alterations in POLR2K expression or function can impact viral replication and disease progression. Additionally, POLR2K has been implicated in the development of certain cancers, including breast and lung cancer, where it may play a role in the regulation of gene expression and chromatin maintenance. In conclusion, POLR2K is a critical component of the RNA polymerase II complex, which plays a central role in the regulation of gene expression and the transcription of protein-coding genes in eukaryotic cells. Its involvement in the regulation of HIV-1 transcription and its role in various cellular pathways make it a significant target for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for HIV-1 infection and cancer.
