Abstract excerpt
A serine/threonine (S/T) kinase encoded by the US3 gene of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is conserved in varicella-zoster virus (VZV) and pseudorabies virus (PRV). Expression of US3 kinase in cells transformed with US3 expression plasmids or infected with each virus results in hyperphosphorylation of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2). Mapping studies revealed that each US3 kinase phosphorylates HDAC2 at the...
