Physical Requirements and Functional Consequences of Complex Formation between the Cytomegalovirus IE1 Protein and Human STAT2
8 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
Our previous work has shown that efficient evasion from type I interferon responses by human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) requires expression of the 72-kDa immediate-early 1 (IE1) protein. It has been suggested that IE1 inhibits interferon signaling through intranuclear sequestration of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 2 (STAT2) protein. Here we show that physical association and subnuclear...
