Research Abstract |
Herpes simplex virus type-2 (HSV-2) is one of DNA viruses, which is spread world-wide and replicates own virus genome in host-cell nucleus. In this study, I examined how HSV-2 replicates own genome in the nucleus. Here I showed that HSV-2 virus protein interfered with the step of host mRNA processing. I further showed that this interference played important role of virus replication.
