A viral gene that activates lytic cycle expression of Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus

Sun, Ren, Lin, Su-Fang, Gradoville, Lyndle, Yuan, Yan, Zhu, Fanxiu, Miller, George

Herpesviruses exist in two states, latency and a lytic productive cycle. Here we identify an immediate-early gene encoded by Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus eight...

Activation of p90 Ribosomal S6 Kinase by ORF45 of Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus and Its Role in Viral Lytic Replication▿

Kuang, Ersheng, Tang, Qiyi, Maul, Gerd G., Zhu, Fanxiu

The extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is essential for infection by a variety of viruses. The p90 ribosomal S6 kinases (RSKs) are direct...
