Abstract excerpt
The pseudorabies virus (PRV) Us3 gene is conserved among the alphaherpesviruses and encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase that is not required for growth in standard cell lines. In this report, we used a compartmented culture system to investigate the role of PRV Us3 in viral replication in neurons, in spread from neurons to PK15 cells, and in axon-mediated spread of infection. We also examined the role of...
