Abstract excerpt
The herpes simplex virus VP16-associated protein HCF is a nuclear host-cell factor that exists as a family of polypeptides encoded by a single gene. The mature HCF polypeptides are amino- and carboxy-terminal fragments of a large approximately 300-kD precursor protein that arise through cleavage at one or more centrally located sites. The sites of cleavage are the HCF repeats, highly conserved 26-amino-acid...
