TRIM28 is a transcriptional corepressor which is required for primer binding site (PBS)-dependent restriction of murine leukemia virus (MLV) replication in embryonic stem and embryonic carcinoma (EC) cells. PBS-dependent restriction of MLV leads to transcriptional silencing of the integrated provirus and has been shown to correlate with TRIM28-mediated recruitment of HP1 to the silenced loci. Here we show, using a cell line with a point mutation in the HP1 binding domain of TRIM28, that interact ...[more]
