Highly Selective Escape from KSHV-mediated Host mRNA Shutoff and Its Implications for Viral Pathogenesis
2 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
During Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) lytic infection, many virus-encoded signaling molecules (e.g., viral G protein-coupled receptor [vGPCR]) are produced that can induce host gene expression in transiently transfected cells, and roles for such induced host genes have been posited in KS pathogenesis. However, we have recently found that host gene expression is strongly inhibited by 10-12 h...
