Complex Interplay of the UL136 Isoforms Balances Cytomegalovirus Replication and Latency
1 Mar 2016
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a betaherpesvirus, persists indefinitely in the human host through poorly understood mechanisms. The UL136 gene is carried within a genetic locus important to HCMV latency termed the UL133/8 locus, which also carries UL133, UL135, and UL138. Previously, we demonstrated that UL136 is expressed as five protein isoforms ranging from 33-kDa to 19-kDa, arising from alternative...
