A novel mechanism for regulation of the type I IFN response by herpesvirus deconjugases

April 11, 2018

In this article, the authors comment on the study "Herpesvirus deconjugases inhibit the IFN response by promoting TRIM25 autoubiquitination and functional inactivation of the RIG-I signalosome" by Gupta et al. (PLoS Pathog, 2018), discussing the finding of a novel mechanism for regulation of the type I IFN response by herpesvirus deconjugases.

The interaction between herpes simplex virus 1 genome and promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) as a hallmark of the entry in latency

November 4, 2016

This article comments on work published by Maroul et al. (PLoS Pathog, 2016), which demonstrates that the interaction of the viral genomes with the nuclear architecture and specifically the promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies is a major determinant for the entry of HSV-1 into latency.
