Lytic but not latent infection by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus requires host CSL protein, the mediator of Notch signaling
27 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
Infection by Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a key factor in the development of KS. Both latent and lytic KSHV infection is observed in KS tumor cells, and both genetic programs contribute importantly to KS pathogenesis. The viral replication and transcription activator (RTA) protein is a transcription factor that controls the switch from latency to lytic replication. We have previously...
