Defining the Transcriptional Landscape during Cytomegalovirus Latency with Single-Cell RNA Sequencing

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Primary infection with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) results in a lifelong infection due to its ability to establish latent infection, with one characterized viral reservoir being hematopoietic cells. Although reactivation from latency causes serious disease in immunocompromised individuals, our molecular understanding of latency is limited. Here, we delineate viral gene expression during natural HCMV...
