Abstract excerpt
In herpes simplex virus 1-infected cells, the first set of genes to be expressed (alpha genes) is induced by the alpha gene trans-inducing factor (alpha TIF), a virion structural protein. The cis-acting site in the 5' untranscribed domain of alpha genes was previously reported to be the sequence 5'-GYATGNTAATGARATTCYTTGNGGG noncoding (where Y is a pyrimidine, R is a purine, N is any base), which binds a host...
