Herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) belongs to a family that includes HSV-2, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Varicella zoster (chicken pox) virus amongst others. HSV-1 and HSV-2 are extremely difficult to distinguish from each other. Members of this family have a characteristic virion structure. The double stranded DNA genome is contained within an icosahedral capsid embedded in a proteinaceous layer (tegument) and surrounded by a lipid envelope, derived from the nuclear membrane of the last host, which is decorated with virus-specific glycoproteins spikes. These viruses are capable of entering a latent phase where the host shows no visible sign of infection and levels of infectious agent become very low. During the latent phase the viral DNA is integrated into the genome of the host cell.

蛋白名
Neurovirulence factor ICP34.5
亚基
Interacts with human PPP1CA to form a high-molecular-weight complex that dephosphorylates eIF2-alpha. Binds to host PCNA, which may release host cells from growth arrest and facilitate viral replication.
亚细胞定位
Host cytoplasm. Host nucleus, host nucleolus. Virion. Note=At early times in infection, colocalizes with PCNA and replication proteins in cell nuclei, before accumulating in the cytoplasm by 8 to 12 hours post-infection. The effects on the host cell are mediated by de novo-synthesized ICP34.5, the virion-derived population being either non-functional or present in very low amounts.
相似性
Belongs to the PPP1R15 family.
功能
Contributes to HSV resistance to the antiviral effects of alpha/beta interferon. Recruits the serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PPP1CA/PP1-alpha to dephosphorylate the translation initiation factor eIF-2A, thereby couteracting the host shutoff of protein synthesis involving double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase EIF2AK2/PKR. Also down-modulates the host MHC class II proteins cell surface expression. Acts as a neurovirulence factor that has a profound effect on the growth of the virus in central nervous system tissue, probably through its ability to maintain an environment favorable for viral replication.
