  1. (+) indicates evidence of HIV-1 regulatory function by cell type. (−) indicates evidence that the factor either does not participate in or has a non-essential HIV-1 regulatory function in that cell type. (?) indicates that the HIV-1 regulatory function is yet to be demonstrated in that cell type. Also shown is a classification by cell type of the known or unknown expression profiles of P-TEFb subunits, 7SK snRNP and the SEC component ELL2
