Kaposis sarcoma-associated herpesvirus ORF67.5 functions as a component of the terminase complex

Y. Iwaisako, T. Watanabe, Y. Suzuki, T. Nakano, M. Fujimuro

This study identifies ORF67.5 as a critical component of the KSHV terminase complex, essential for TR cleavage, capsid formation, and virus production.

Conserved cysteine residues in Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus ORF34 are necessary for viral production and viral pre-initiation complex formation.

T. Watanabe, A. McGraw, K. Narayan, H. Tibebe, K. Kuriyama, M. Nishimura, T. Izumi, M. Fujimuro, S. Ohno

This study identifies four conserved cysteine residues in KSHV ORF34 essential for vPIC formation and viral production through alanine-scanning mutants and structural modeling.

The contribution of Kaposis sarcoma-associated herpesvirus ORF7 and its zinc-finger motif to viral genome cleavage and capsid formation

Y. Iwaisako, T. Watanabe, Y. Sekine, Y. Suzuki, T. Nakano, M. Fujimuro

This study investigates the role of KSHV ORF7 and its zinc-finger motif in viral genome cleavage and capsid formation, revealing that ORF7 acts after ORF17 and is essential for proper capsid assembly and virion production.

Epstein-Barr virus tegument protein BGLF2 in exosomes released from virus-producer cells assists de novo infection

Y. Sato, M. Yaguchi, Y. Okuno, H. Ishimaru, S. Ozaki, T. Suzuki, T. Inagaki, M. Umeda, T. Watanabe, M. Fujimuro, T. Murata, H. Kimura

This study identifies BGLF2, an EBV tegument protein, as being encapsulated in exosomes that enhance viral infection by boosting gene expression and suppressing innate immunity.
