Herpes simplex virus infections are arrested in Oct-1-deficient cells
26 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Expression of the herpes simplex virus (HSV) immediate early (IE) genes is regulated by a multiprotein complex that is assembled on the TAATGARAT enhancer core element. The complex contains the cellular POU domain protein Oct-1, the viral transactivator VP16, and the cellular cofactor host cell factor 1. The current model suggests that the assembly depends on recognition of the core element by Oct-1. Here, HSV...
