Bocavirus Infection Induces a DNA Damage Response That Facilitates Viral DNA Replication and Mediates Cell Death

Abstract excerpt

Minute virus of canines (MVC) is an autonomous parvovirus that replicates efficiently without helper viruses in Walter Reed/3873D (WRD) canine cells. We previously showed that MVC infection induces mitochondrion-mediated apoptosis and G(2)/M-phase arrest in infected WRD cells. However, the mechanism responsible for these effects has not been established. Here, we report that MVC infection triggers a DNA damage...
