Detection of Herpes Simplex Virus DNA in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome
Background: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is one of the most common identifiable causes of open angle glaucoma. It has unknown etiology and pathogenesis. Infection, possibly viral, is one of the proposed pathogenic mechanisms in this condition. In the present study the presence of herpes simplex virus (HSV) in specimens of anterior lens capsule of patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome has been ...
متن کاملStructural Organization of Mammalian Prions as Probed by Limited Proteolysis
Elucidation of the structure of PrP(Sc) continues to be one major challenge in prion research. The mechanism of propagation of these infectious agents will not be understood until their structure is solved. Given that high resolution techniques such as NMR or X-ray crystallography cannot be used, a number of lower resolution analytical approaches have been attempted. Thus, limited proteolysis h...
متن کاملHerpes Simplex Virus and Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Background and objective: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare histiocytic proliferative disorder of unknown etiology and mainly affects young children. The histological feature is granuloma-like proliferation of langerhans-type dendritic cells. Although the possible role of viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV, Human Herpes virus -4</...
متن کاملHerpes simplex virus DNA replication.
The Herpesviridae comprise a large class of animal viruses of considerable public health importance. Of the Herpesviridae, replication of herpes simplex virustype-1 (HSV-1) has been the most extensively studied. The linear 152-kbp HSV-1 genome contains three origins of DNA replication and approximately 75 open-reading frames. Of these frames, seven encode proteins that are required for originsp...
متن کاملPolymerase and Exonuclease Activities in Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 DNA Polymerase Are Not Highly Coordinated
The herpes polymerase-processivity factor complex consists of the catalytic UL30 subunit containing both polymerase and proofreading exonuclease activities and the UL42 subunit that acts as a processivity factor. Curiously, the highly active exonuclease has minimal impact on the accumulation of mismatches generated by the polymerase activity. We utilized a series of oligonucleotides of defined ...
