Human Cytomegalovirus UL84 Interacts with an RNA Stem-Loop Sequence Found within the RNA/DNA Hybrid Region of ori Lyt
26 Apr 2007
Abstract excerpt
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) lytic DNA replication is initiated at the complex cis-acting oriLyt region, which spans nearly 3 kb. DNA synthesis requires six core proteins together with UL84 and IE2. Previously, two essential regions were identified within oriLyt. Essential region I (nucleotides [nt] 92209 to 92573) can be replaced with the constitutively active simian virus 40 promoter, which in turn eliminates...
