Wide-Scale Use of Notch Signaling Factor CSL/RBP-Jκ in RTA-Mediated Activation of Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Lytic Genes
12 Nov 2009
Abstract excerpt
For Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV; also called human herpesvirus 8 [HHV8]), the switch from latency to active lytic replication requires RTA, the product of open reading frame 50 (ORF50). RTA activates transcription from nearly 40 early and delayed-early viral promoters, mainly through interactions with cellular DNA binding proteins, such as CSL/RBP-Jkappa, Oct-1, C/EBPalpha, and c-Jun.
