Expression of each subgroup Tax or HBZ protein under transcriptional control of a doxycycline (Dox)-inducible promoter. a Schematic representation of the subgroup-specific Tax and HBZ proteins. Proteins are shown as grey bars, and differences in amino acid sequences between subgroup-specific Tax, i.e., Tax-A and Tax-B, or HBZ, i.e., HBZ-A and HBZ-B, proteins are indicated by a single letter amino acid abbreviation. b The Dox-induced expression of each Tax or HBZ protein is shown. Western blot analysis confirmed that each subgroup-specific Tax and HBZ protein was appropriately induced following Dox treatment
