ORF73 of murine herpesvirus-68 is critical for the establishment and maintenance of latency
26 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
In vitro studies have established that the latency-associated nuclear antigen encoded by human Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus and the related ORF73 gene product of herpesvirus saimiri interact with virus origins of replication to facilitate maintenance of episomal DNA. Such a function implies a critical role for ORF73 in the establishment and maintenance of latency in vivo. To determine the role of ORF73...
