Here, we describe the inhibition of HIV-1 infection and the p65/p50 NF-κB phosphorylation by DING protein, analyzed by ELISA and northern-blot assays, western-blot assays, cell fractionation, and promoter-reporter assays in DING-expressing cells, using a pTet-on inducible system. Here, NFKB1 is linked to HIV-1 infection.
