The mechanism of inhibition of herpes simplex virus type 1 DNA replication by roscovitineNewman, Emma 06 1900 (has links)
Transcription and DNA replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) occur in nuclear domains adjacent to structures named ND10. The HSV-1 single-stranded DNA binding protein ICP8 localizes to these nuclear domains to direct the assembly of the pre- and replication compartments.
Inhibition of cyclin dependent kinases with roscovitine inhibits HSV-1 DNA replication, even in the presence of all required HSV-1 proteins, at an unidentified step. Here I show that roscovitine inhibits the localization of pre-expressed ICP8 to new replication sites. Therefore, the inhibition of HSV-1 DNA replication occurs at a step prior to initiation. I next evaluated the mechanisms of inhibition of proper ICP8 localization. ICP8 was extracted at lower salt concentrations from roscovitine-treated than untreated cells, but the affinity of ICP8 for ssDNA in vitro was not affected.
I propose that roscovitine inhibits HSV-1 DNA replication by inhibiting DNA accessibility. I also discuss alternative mechanisms.
