Abstract excerpt
We have identified a trans-dominant mutant form of the herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA-binding protein ICP8 which inhibits viral replication. When expressed by the V2.6 cell line, the mutant gene product inhibited wild-type HSV production by 50- to 150-fold when the multiplicity of infection was less than 5. Production of HSV types 1 and 2 but not production of pseudorabies virus was inhibited in V2.6 cells. The...
