Rho-ROCK and Rac-PAK Signaling Pathways Have Opposing Effects on the Cell-to-Cell Spread of Marek's Disease Virus
27 Aug 2012
Abstract excerpt
Marek's Disease Virus (MDV) is an avian alpha-herpesvirus that only spreads from cell-to-cell in cell culture. While its cell-to-cell spread has been shown to be dependent on actin filament dynamics, the mechanisms regulating this spread remain largely unknown. Using a recombinant BAC20 virus expressing an EGFPVP22 tegument protein, we found that the actin cytoskeleton arrangements and cell-cell contacts differ...
