Abstract excerpt
The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) UL12 gene encodes an alkaline pH-dependent deoxyribonuclease termed alkaline nuclease. A recombinant UL12 knockout mutant, AN-1, is severely compromised for growth, and analysis of this mutant suggests that UL12 plays a role in processing complex DNA replication intermediates (R. Martinez, R. T. Sarisky, P. C. Weber, and S. K. Weller, (1996) J. Virol. 70, 2075-2085). This...
