Human Cytomegalovirus UL76 Encodes a Novel Virion-Associated Protein That Is Able To Inhibit Viral Replication
26 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL76 gene encodes a highly conserved herpesvirus protein, pUL76, which is able to modulate gene expression in either activation or repression. In this study, two specific transcripts were found to contain the reading frame of UL76, one a 4.5-kb and the other a 5.5-kb tricistronic mRNA encoding the UL76, UL77, and UL78 open reading frames. Both transcripts were expressed with true...
