Targeting the Kaposi’s Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus Genome With the CRISPR-Cas9 Platform in Latently Infected Cells

2020-10-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a transforming gammaherpes. Like other herpesviruses, KSHV infection is for life long and there is no treatment that can cure of patients from the virus. In addition, there is urgent need to target viral genes to study their role during the infection cycle. The CRISPR-Cas9 technology offers a means to target viral genomes and thus may offer a...
