Autoregulation of DNA Binding and Protein Stability of Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus ORF50 Protein
14 Sept 2004
Abstract excerpt
A transcriptional activator encoded in open reading frame 50 (ORF50) of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) initiates the viral lytic cycle. ORF50 protein activates downstream KSHV target genes by at least two mechanisms: direct recognition of response elements in promoter DNA and interaction with cellular proteins bound to promoter DNA. We have identified a multifunctional regulatory region, present...
