The human cytomegalovirus regulatory protein UL69 and its effect on mRNA export
1 Nov 2007
Abstract excerpt
One of the characteristic features of herpesviruses is that most of their genes are intronless. Thus, their replication relies on the selective nuclear export of intronless viral mRNAs, which have to compete with the nuclear export of bulk spliced cellular mRNAs. Therefore, the regulation of nuclear mRNA export is crucial for the replication and pathogenesis of herpesviruses. Besides the thymidine kinase...
