Abstract excerpt
Induction of transcription of the immediate-early (IE) genes of herpes simplex virus (HSV) involves the assembly of a DNA-binding complex containing the cellular transcription factor Oct-1 and the virus regulatory protein Vmw65 (VP16). Complex assembly can be observed using deletion variants of Vmw65 which lack the acidic C-terminal activation domain and are therefore defective for IE transactivation. Similar...
