Mapping of human herpesvirus 6 immediate–early 2 protein transactivation domains
The immediate-early 2 (IE2) protein of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a potent transactivator of multiple cellular and viral promoters. Deletion mutants of HHV-6 variant A IE2 allowed us to map functional transactivation domains acting on complex and minimal promoter sequences.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus oncoprotein K13 protects against B cell receptor induced growth arrest and apoptosis through NF-κB activation [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has been linked to the development of Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma and multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD). We have characterized the role of KSHV-encoded viral FLICE inhibitory protein K13

Disturbances of mitochondrial dynamics in cultured neurons infected with human herpesvirus type 1 and type 2 [PDF]
Human herpesvirus types 1 and 2 (HHV-1 and HHV-2) are neurotropic viruses which remain latent for life and reactivate to cause recurrent infections. HHV-1 has been found to be involved in accumulation of β-amyloid, hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins, and inflammation in the brain, which can later result in neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration ...

Refractory pemphigus foliaceus associated with herpesvirus infection: case report
Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is an autoimmune disease characterized by blistering of the skin. Infections caused by members of the herpesviridae family have been suggested as a possible triggering factor for pemphigus vulgaris (PV), but not for PF.

Microsatellite instability in chicken lymphoma induced by gallid herpesvirus 2. [PDF]
Microsatellite instability (MSI) has been found in a range of human tumors, and little is known of the links between MSI and herpesvirus. In order to investigate the relationship between MSI and Gallid herpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2)-induced lymphoma, fifteen ...
