Trans-activation of viral tk promoters by proteins encoded by varicella zoster virus open reading frames 61 and 62.

Abstract:

:Plasmids containing the varicella zoster virus (VZV) open reading frames (ORFs) 61 and 62 were used in a transient co-transfection assay to test for trans-activation of the VZV and herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) thymidine kinase (tk) promoters. The trans-activating potential of the polypeptides encoded by these VZV ORFs, designated p51 and p140, was compared to that of their HSV-1 homologs ICP0 and ICP4, respectively. VZV p51 was functionally inactive in this system while p140 appeared to be a much stronger transcriptional activator than ICP4. Co-transfection of plasmids encoding VZV p140 and HSV-1 ICP0 resulted in a synergistic activation of the reporter gene as has been shown for the combination of ICP4 and ICP0.
