Herpes simplex virus 1 ICP0 phosphorylation site mutants are attenuated for viral replication and impaired for explant-induced reactivation.
In cell culture experiments, phosphorylation appears to be a critical regulator of the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) immediate-early (IE) protein, ICP0, which is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that transactivates viral gene expression. Three major regions of phosphorylation in ICP0 (amino acids 224 to 232, 365 to 371, and 508 to 518) have been identified, and mutant viruses that block phosphorylation ...
متن کاملReplication , Establishment of Latency , and Induced Reactivation of Herpes Simplex Virus y , 34 . 5 Deletion Mutants in Rodent Models Richard
Previous studies have shown that a gene mapping in the inverted repeats of the L component of herpes simplex virus, type 1 DNA, designated as y134.5, was dispensable for growth in cells in culture but that the deletion mutant (R3616) and a mutant containing a stop codon (R4009) in each copy of the gene were incapable of replicating in the central nervous systems (CNS) of mice. Restoration of th...
متن کاملThe 2.2-kilobase latency-associated transcript of herpes simplex virus type 2 does not modulate viral replication, reactivation, or establishment of latency in transgenic mice.
To better understand the mechanisms responsible for the observed effects of deletions in the promoter region of the latency-associated transcript (LAT) gene in impairing herpes simplex virus (HSV) reactivation, we generated mice transgenic for a 5.5-kb HSV type 2 (HSV-2) genomic fragment spanning the major LAT, along with the LAT promoter and flanking regions, in the C57BL/6 background. The mic...
متن کاملHerpes simplex virus type 1 DNA replication and gene expression during explant-induced reactivation of latently infected murine sensory ganglia.
Infectious virus assays and PCR amplification of DNA and RNA were used to investigate herpes simplex virus DNA replication and gene expression in two murine in vitro models for virus reactivation. We examined latent infections with wild-type (wt), precisely defined latency-associated transcript-negative (LAT-) mutants, and LAT+ rescuants of these mutants of the 17syn+ strain of virus in both mu...
متن کاملHerpes Simplex Virus Establishment, Maintenance, and Reactivation: In Vitro Modeling of Latency
All herpes viruses establish lifelong infections (latency) in their host, and herpes simplex viruses (HSVs) are highly prevalent worldwide. Recurrence of HSV infections contributes to significant disease burden in people and on rare occasion can be fatal. Cell culture models that recapitulate latent infection provide valuable insight on the host processes regulating viral establishment and main...
