Repression of varicella zoster virus gene expression during quiescent infection in the absence of detectable histone deposition
2024-06-25
Abstract excerpt
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a human-specific herpesvirus that establishes latency in peripheral neurons. The only transcripts detected in infected human trigeminal ganglia (TG) obtained shortly after death correspond to the VZV latency-associated transcript (VLT) and associated VLT-ORF63 splice variants. In vitro studies showed that VLT-ORF63 is translated into a protein (pVLT-ORF63) that induces VZV transcri...
