Functional Analysis of Human Herpesvirus 8-Encoded Viral Interferon Regulatory Factor 1 and Its Association with Cellular Interferon Regulatory Factors and p300
1 Sept 1999
Abstract excerpt
Human herpesvirus 8/Kaposi sarcoma-associated virus (HHV-8/KSHV) contains, in addition to genes required for viral replication, a unique set of nonstructural genes which may be part of viral mimicry and contribute to viral replication and pathogenesis in vivo. Among these, HHV-8 encodes four open reading frames (ORFs) that showed homology to the transcription factors of the interferon regulatory factor (IRF)...
