The human cytomegalovirus UL112-113 locus can activate the full Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus lytic replication cycle.
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection of a cell containing latent Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) results in the activation of KSHV lytic replication and the production of infectious virus. In this study, we examined the HCMV genes identified as having a role in the activation of HCMV early genes for their ability to activate KSHV lytic replication. It was found that the UL112-1...
متن کاملDifferential properties of cytomegalovirus pUL97 kinase isoforms affect viral replication and maribavir susceptibility.
UNLABELLED The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV)-encoded kinase pUL97 is required for efficient viral replication. Previous studies described two isoforms of pUL97, the full-length isoform (M1) and a smaller isoform likely resulting from translation initiation at codon 74 (M74). Here, we report the detection of a third pUL97 isoform during viral infection resulting from translation initiation at cod...
متن کاملRole of the specific interaction of UL112-113 p84 with UL44 DNA polymerase processivity factor in promoting DNA replication of human cytomegalovirus.
The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL112-113 region encodes four phosphoproteins with common amino termini (p34, p43, p50, and p84) via alternative splicing and is thought to be required for efficient viral DNA replication. We have previously shown that interactions among the four UL112-113 proteins regulate their intranuclear targeting and enable the recruitment of the UL44 DNA polymerase proces...
متن کاملHuman cytomegalovirus tegument protein ppUL35 is important for viral replication and particle formation.
The tegument proteins ppUL35 and ppUL82 (pp71) of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) physically interact and cooperatively activate the major immediate-early transcription. While an HCMV mutant lacking UL82 displayed a multiplicity of infection (MOI)-dependent growth, the biological significance of ppUL35 has not been addressed so far. We generated a mutant virus with a deletion of the UL35 gene. Usi...
متن کاملHuman cytomegalovirus UL36 protein is dispensable for viral replication in cultured cells.
Consistent with earlier analyses of human cytomegalovirus UL36 mRNA, we find that the UL36 protein is present throughout infection. In fact, it is delivered to the infected cell as a constituent of the virion. Curiously, much less UL36 protein accumulated in cells infected with the AD169 strain of human cytomegalovirus than in cells infected with the Towne or Toledo strain, and localization of ...
