摘要:
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) ICP27 protein is an essential regulator of viral gene expression with roles at various levels of RNA metabolism in the nucleus. Using the tethered function assay, we showed a cytoplasmic activity for ICP27 in directly enhancing mRNA translation in vivo in the absence of other viral factors. The region of ICP27 required for translational stimulation maps to the C terminus. Furthermore, in infected cells, ICP27 is associated with polyribosomes, indicating a function in translation during the lytic cycle.
