Previous reports have shown that adenovirus recruits nucleolar protein upstream-binding factor (UBF) into adenovirus DNA replication centres. Here, we report that despite having a different mode of viral DNA replication, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) also recruits UBF into viral DNA replication centres. Moreover, as with adenovirus, enhanced green fluorescent protein-tagged fusion proteins of UBF inhibit viral DNA replication. We propose that UBF is recruited to the replication compartments to aid replication of HSV-1 DNA. In addition, this is a further example of the role of nucleolar components in viral life cycles.
先前的报告显示,腺病毒将核仁蛋白上游结合因子(UBF)招募到腺病毒DNA复制中心。在此,我们报告,尽管单纯疱疹病毒1型(HSV-1)具有不同的病毒DNA复制模式,但它也将UBF招募到病毒DNA复制中心。此外,与腺病毒一样,增强型绿色荧光蛋白标记的UBF融合蛋白会抑制病毒DNA复制。我们提出,UBF被招募到复制区室以辅助HSV-1 DNA的复制。此外,这是核仁成分在病毒生命周期中作用的又一个例子。
