Abstract excerpt
Herpes simplex virus type 1 virion protein Vmw65 forms a complex (TRF.C) with TAATGARAT sequences and the cellular transcription factor oct-1, which has been implicated as an intermediate in the activation of gene expression by Vmw65. To examine structural requirements within Vmw65 for this interaction, we analyzed extracts of transfected cells that express mutant Vmw65 proteins by gel retardation assay and...
