The antiviral protein Shiftless blocks p-body formation during KSHV infection.

D. Hatfield, W. Rodriguez, T. Mehrmann, M. Muller

This study identifies SHFL as a factor that disassembles p-bodies and inhibits KSHV infection by blocking PB formation and enhancing anti-viral cytokine expression.

Shiftless Restricts Viral Gene Expression and Influences RNA Granule Formation during KSHV lytic replication.

W. Rodriguez, T. Mehrmann, M. Muller

This paper identifies SHFL as an anti-viral protein that restricts KSHV replication by targeting viral gene expression and influencing RNA granule formation.

The KSHV ORF20 Protein Interacts With The Viral Processivity Factor ORF59 And Promote Viral Reactivation.

D. Hoffman, W. Rodriguez, D. Macveigh-Fierro, J. Miles, M. Muller

This study identifies ORF20 as a key regulator of KSHV lytic reactivation by interacting with ORF59 and promoting vDNA replication and virion production.

C19ORF66 broadly escapes viral-induced endonuclease cleavage and restricts Kaposi Sarcoma Associated Herpesvirus (KSHV)

W. Rodriguez, A. Srivastav, M. Muller

The paper identifies C19ORF66 as a transcript that escapes viral endonuclease cleavage and functions as a KSHV restriction factor.
