Global mRNA degradation during lytic gammaherpesvirus infection contributes to establishment of viral latency. [PDF]
During a lytic gammaherpesvirus infection, host gene expression is severely restricted by the global degradation and altered 3' end processing of mRNA. This host shutoff phenotype is orchestrated by the viral SOX protein, yet its functional significance ...

ABSTRACT Kaposi sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV), a gamma‐herpesvirus, is the main etiological agent of several tumors, including Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). The large, double‐stranded viral genome of KSHV is maintained as a latent episome in the nucleus of host cells, where a small subset of viral genes is expressed

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), one of the most severe interstitial lung diseases, is a progressive fibrotic disorder of unknown etiology. However, there is growing appreciation for the role of viral infection in disease induction and/or progression.

Gammaherpesviruses, including the human pathogens Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), establish lifelong latent infection in B cells and are associated with a variety of tumors. In addition to protein coding genes,

The innate and T-cell mediated immune response during acute and chronic gammaherpesvirus infection
Immediately after entry into host cells, viruses are sensed by the innate immune system, leading to the activation of innate antiviral effector mechanisms including the type I interferon (IFN) response and natural killer (NK) cells.

MHV68.vBcl2stop is attenuated in B cells undergoing negative selection.
B6 mice were infected i.n. with 104 PFU wild-type MHV68 or MHV68.vBcl-2stop. Sixteen days post-inoculation bone marrow and spleens were harvested from five mice per sample group in each experiment.

G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are pivotal in cellular signalling and drug targeting. Herpesviruses encode GPCRs (vGPCRs) to manipulate cellular signalling, thereby regulating various aspects of the virus life cycle, such as viral spreading and immune evasion.
