Tat activation of HIV-1 transcription is mediated
by human transcription elongation factor P-TEFb, which interacts with
Tat and phosphorylates the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II. The
catalytic subunit of the P-TEFb complex, Cdk9, has been shown to
interact with cyclin T and several other proteins of unknown identity.
Consequently, the exact subunit composition of active P-TEFb has not
been determined. Here we report the affinity purification and
identification of the Cdk9-associated proteins. In addition to forming
a heterodimer with cyclin T1, Cdk9 interacted with the molecular
chaperone Hsp70 or a kinase-specific chaperone complex, Hsp90/Cdc37, to
form two separate chaperone-Cdk9 complexes. Although the Cdk9/cyclin T1
dimer was exceptionally stable and produced slowly in the cell, free
and unprotected Cdk9 appeared to be degraded rapidly. Several lines of
evidence indicate the heterodimer of Cdk9/cyclin T1 to be the mature,
active form of P-TEFb responsible for phosphorylation of the C-terminal
domain of RNA polymerase II interaction with the Tat activation domain,
and mediation of Tat activation of HIV-1 transcription. Pharmacological
inactivation of Hsp90/Cdc37 function by geldanamycin revealed an
essential role for the chaperone-Cdk9 complexes in generation of
Cdk9/cyclin T1. Our data suggest a previously unrecognized
chaperone-dependent pathway involving the sequential
actions of Hsp70 and Hsp90/Cdc37 in the stabilization/folding of
Cdk9 as well as the assembly of an active Cdk9/cyclin T1 complex
responsible for P-TEFb-mediated Tat transactivation.

Production of a Cdk9/Cyclin T1 Heterodimer Responsible for
P-TEFb-mediated Tat Stimulation of HIV-1 Transcription*
