The potential terminase subunit of human cytomegalovirus, pUL56, is translocated into the nucleus by its own nuclear localization signal and interacts with importin α
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) DNA-binding protein pUL56 is thought to be involved in the cleavage/packaging process of viral DNA and therefore needs to be transported into the nucleus. By using indirect immunofluorescence analysis, HCMV pUL56 (p130) was found to be localized predominantly in the nucleus of infected cells. Solitary expression of wild-type as well as epitope-tagged pUL56 also resulted in nuclear...
