Abstract excerpt
The herpes simplex virus type 1 L/S junction-spanning transcripts (L/STs) are a family of multisized transcripts expressed at high levels in cells infected with mutant viruses that (i) do not express ICP4, (ii) specify forms of ICP4 unable to bind to the consensus ICP4 binding site, or (iii) cont...
