Abstract excerpt
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) open reading frame 61 (ORF61) protein transactivates expression of VZV promoters. VZV ORF61 is functionally homologous to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-infected cell protein 0 (ICP0); however, amino acid sequence homology of these two proteins is limited to the RING finger domains, a recently identified sequence motif composed of cysteine and histidine residues, located in their...
