Abstract excerpt
The immediate-early 2 (IE2) protein of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a potent transactivator of multiple cellular and viral promoters. Deletion mutants of HHV-6 variant A IE2 allowed us to map functional transactivation domains acting on complex and minimal promoter sequences. This mapping showed that both the N-terminal and C-terminal domains of IE2 are required for efficient transactivation, and that deletion...
