Abstract excerpt
Regulation of DNA repair mechanisms during the viral replication cycle may have consequences for the virus with regards to genomic variability, adaptation, and replication of viral DNA. We have studied the activities and expression patterns of key enzymes involved in the first two steps of base excision repair (BER) of DNA in primary fibroblasts infected by human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). Infected cells were very...
