Deacetylation of the herpes simplex virus type 1 latency-associated transcript (LAT) enhancer and a decrease in LAT abundance precede an increase in ICP0 transcriptional permissiveness at early times postexplant.
Only the latency-associated transcript (LAT) of the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) genome is transcribed during latency, while the lytic genes are suppressed, possibly by LAT antisense mechanisms and/or chromatin modifications. In the present study, latently infected dorsal root ganglia were explanted to assess both relative levels of LAT and histone H3 (K9, K14) acetylation of the LAT loc...
متن کاملTissue-specific splicing of the herpes simplex virus type 1 latency-associated transcript (LAT) intron in LAT transgenic mice.
To study the regulation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) latency-associated transcript (LAT) expression and processing in the absence of other cis and trans viral functions, a transgenic mouse containing the region encompassing the LAT promoter (LAP1) and the LAT 5' exon through the 2.0-kb intron was created. LAT expression was detectable by reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) in a number ...
متن کاملHerpes simplex virus type 1 serum neutralizing antibody titers increase during latency in rabbits latently infected with latency-associated transcript (LAT)-positive but not LAT-negative viruses.
The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) latency-associated transcript (LAT) gene is essential for efficient spontaneous reactivation in the rabbit ocular model of HSV-1 latency and reactivation. LAT is also the only viral gene abundantly expressed during latency. Rabbits were ocularly infected with the wild-type HSV-1 strain McKrae or the McKrae-derived LAT null mutant dLAT2903. Serum neutraliz...
متن کاملHerpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Latency-Associated Transcript Reduces Human Neuroblastoma Cell Proliferation
Background and Aims: The latency-associated transcript (LAT) transcribed by latent Herpes Simplex Virus type-1 in neuron cells are able to influence their host cell pathways. While the most of previous studies were focused on anti-apoptotic effects of LAT, our investigation is making an effort to explore LAT potency on cell cycle pathway in neuroblastoma cell lines. Methods: The evaluation of L...
متن کاملThe latency associated transcripts (LAT) of herpes simplex virus: still no end in sight.
The herpes simplex virus latency associated transcripts (LAT) are the only viral gene products that accumulate to a high concentration in the trigeminal ganglia (TG) of latently infected animals. Their abundance is particularly surprising, since they are thought to be the introns of a larger, approximately 8.3 kb precursor. LAT are not linear molecules. Therefore they are either a circle or a l...
