Generation of mesothelial progenitor-like cells from mouse-induced pluripotent stem cells.

abstract：:Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) ORF57 plays a pivotal role in mediating the nuclear export of KSHV intronless transcripts. We demonstrate that ORF57 localises and dynamically trafficks through the nucleolus. To assess if nucleolar shuttling of ORF57 is important for the export of intronless viral mRNA, ...
