Abstract excerpt
We have previously reported that mtHSV, a herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) mutant with an inactivated gene for β-galactosidase, can efficiently lyse tumor but not normal cells. However, the mechanism of this selective oncolytic activity is so far unclear. In this study, using the phage display screening we identified the cellular protein binding to HSV-1 mutant (mtHSV) as (Ras guanyl releasing protein 2) Rasgrp2...
