Human Cytomegalovirus Disrupts both Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated Protein (ATM)- and ATM-Rad3-Related Kinase-Mediated DNA Damage Responses during Lytic Infection
7 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
Many viruses (herpes simplex virus type 1, polyomavirus, and human immunodeficiency virus type 1) require the activation of ataxia telangiectasia mutated protein (ATM) and/or Mre11 for a fully permissive infection. However, the longer life cycle of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) may require more specific interactions with the DNA repair machinery to maximize viral replication. A prototypical damage response to the...
