Adenovirus Serotype 5 L4-22K and L4-33K Proteins Have Distinct Functions in Regulating Late Gene Expression
29 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
Adenoviruses express up to 20 distinct mRNAs from five major late transcription unit (MLTU) regions, L1 to L5, by differential splicing and polyadenylation of the primary transcript. MLTU expression is regulated at transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels. The L4-33K protein acts as a splicing factor to upregulate several MLTU splice acceptor sites as the late phase progresses. The L4 region also expresses...
