Thymidine kinase-negative mutants of herpes simplex virus did not reactivate from latency in mouse trigeminal ganglia, even when their latent viral loads were comparable to those that permitted reactivation by wild-type virus. Thus, reduced establishment of latency does not suffice to account for the failure to reactivate.
单纯疱疹病毒的胸苷激酶阴性突变体无法从小鼠三叉神经节的潜伏状态重新激活,即使它们的潜伏病毒载量与那些能被野生型病毒重新激活的病毒载量相当。因此,潜伏建立的减少不足以解释重新激活失败的原因。
