Conserved herpesvirus protein kinase (CHPK)-mediated phosphorylation of viral proteins associated with nucleocytoplasmic trafficking during natural infection

Jul 2026 · bioRxiv · 0 citations
Biology

TL;DR

Analysis of viral gene expression, protein abundance, and post-translational modifications (PTMs) during natural infection suggests that MDV CHPK orchestrates the subcellular localization of multiple viral proteins in epithelial skin cells via phosphorylation, thereby enabling efficient replication and horizontal transmission in the natural host.

Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of the herpesvirus tegument protein UL47_TEG5 is required for its functional role in horizontal transmission in chickens

The results show that nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of UL47_TEG5 is mediated through a non-canonical mechanism and highlight UL47_TEG5 as a potential target for improved vaccines to better control this economically important disease.

PTBP1 at the host–virus interface: mechanistic roles in viral RNA translation, replication, and immune modulation

The existing mechanistic knowledge about the PTBP1 functions during viral infection is described and the possibility of PTBP1 being used as a host-directed antiviral drug target despite the hurdles in doing so considering its multifunctionality as an essential cellular RNA-binding protein is explored.
