Non-covalent Interaction With SUMO Enhances the Activity of Human Cytomegalovirus Protein IE1
Viruses interact with the host cellular pathways to optimize cellular conditions for replication. The Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) Immediate-Early protein 1 (IE1) is the first viral protein to express during infection.

Human Cytomegalovirus Immediate-Early 1 Protein Rewires Upstream STAT3 to Downstream STAT1 Signaling Switching an IL6-Type to an IFNγ-Like Response. [PDF]
The human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) major immediate-early 1 protein (IE1) is best known for activating transcription to facilitate viral replication. Here we present transcriptome data indicating that IE1 is as significant a repressor as it is an activator ...

Cross-Species Analysis of Innate Immune Antagonism by Cytomegalovirus IE1 Protein
The human cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early 1 (IE1) protein has evolved as a multifunctional antagonist of intrinsic and innate immune mechanisms. In addition, this protein serves as a transactivator and potential genome maintenance protein. Recently,

Early and late gene expressions of baculoviruses have been known to rely on host RNA polymerase II and a virus-encoded RNA polymerase, separately. In this study, we found that Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) recombinant ...

Human cytomegalovirus IE1 downregulates Hes1 in neural progenitor cells as a potential E3 ubiquitin ligase. [PDF]
Congenital human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is the leading cause of neurological disabilities in children worldwide, but the mechanisms underlying these disorders are far from well-defined.

Analysis of human cytomegalovirus-encoded SUMO targets and temporal regulation of SUMOylation of the immediate-early proteins IE1 and IE2 during infection. [PDF]
Post-translational modification of proteins by members of the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is involved in diverse cellular functions. Many viral proteins are SUMO targets and also interact with the cellular SUMOylation system.

Human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) immediate early 1 (IE1) protein associates with condensed chromatin of the host cell during mitosis. We have determined the structure of the chromatin-tethering domain (CTD) of IE1 bound to the nucleosome core particle, and ...

LvYY1 Activates WSSV ie1 Promoter for Enhanced Vaccine Production and Efficacy
The baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS) has been used as a preferred platform for the production of recombinant protein complexes and efficacious vaccines. However, limited protein yield hinders the application of BEVS.
