Calmodulin controls the tempo of HSV-1 gene-expression cascade to reshape infection heterogeneity

Yuhei Maruzuru, Yuta Kuze, Masahide Seki…·Yasushi Kawaguchi

This study identifies calmodulin as a host factor that accelerates HSV-1 gene-expression tempo, increasing virus-producing cells and protecting mice from lethal infection.

Identification of Viral Activators of the HSV-2 UL13 Protein Kinase

Naoto Koyanagi, Kosuke Takeshima, Saori Shio…·Yasushi Kawaguchi

This paper identifies HSV-2 UL55 and Us10 as viral activators of the UL13 protein kinase, showing UL55 is a principal activator and Us10 is an auxiliary activator for kinase activity and viral replication.
