Herpes simplex virus type 1-induced ribonucleotide reductase activity is dispensable for virus growth and DNA synthesis: isolation and characterization of an ICP6 …

DJ Goldstein, SK Weller - Journal of virology, 1988 - Am Soc Microbiol
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) encodes a ribonucleotide reductase consisting of two subunits (140
and 38 kilodaltons) whose genes map to coordinates 0.56 to 0.60 on the viral genome. …

The UL6 gene product forms the portal for entry of DNA into the herpes simplex virus capsid

…, DR Thomsen, FL Homa, AD Burch, SK Weller… - Journal of …, 2001 - Am Soc Microbiol
During replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), viral DNA is synthesized in the
infected cell nucleus, where DNA-free capsids are also assembled. Genome-length DNA …

Herpes simplex viruses: mechanisms of DNA replication

SK Weller, DM Coen - Cold Spring Harbor perspectives …, 2012 - cshperspectives.cshlp.org
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) encodes seven proteins necessary for viral DNA synthesis—UL9
(origin-binding protein), ICP8 (single-strand DNA [ssDNA]-binding protein), UL30/UL42 (…

Factor (s) present in herpes simplex virus type 1-infected cells can compensate for the loss of the large subunit of the viral ribonucleotide reductase: characterization of …

DJ Goldstein, SK Weller - Virology, 1988 - Elsevier
Herpes simplex virus type 1 encodes a ribonucleotide reductase (RR) consisting of two
subunits (140 and 38 kDa) whose genes map to coordinates 0.56 to 0.60 on the viral genome. …

Recruitment of cellular recombination and repair proteins to sites of herpes simplex virus type 1 DNA replication is dependent on the composition of viral proteins …

DE Wilkinson, SK Weller - Journal of virology, 2004 - Am Soc Microbiol
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) DNA replication is associated with nuclear domains
called ND10, which contain host recombination proteins such as RPA, RAD51, and NBS1 and …

Herpes simplex virus 1 helicase-primase: a complex of three herpes-encoded gene products.

…, T TsURUMI, LA Zhu, SK Weller… - Proceedings of the …, 1989 - National Acad Sciences
In an earlier report, we described a DNA helicase that is specifically induced upon infection
of Vero cells with herpes simplex virus 1. We have purified this enzyme to near homogeneity …

Herpes simplex virus eliminates host mitochondrial DNA

HA Saffran, JM Pare, JA Corcoran, SK Weller… - EMBO …, 2007 - embopress.org
Mitochondria have crucial roles in the life and death of mammalian cells, and help to
orchestrate host antiviral defences. Here, we show that the ubiquitous human pathogen herpes …

Cloning, Sequencing, and Functional Analysis of oriL, a Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Origin of DNA Synthesis

SK Weller, A Spadaro, JE Schaffer… - … and Cellular Biology, 1985 - Taylor & Francis
The herpes simplex virus type 1 genome (160 kilobases) contains three origins of DNA
synthesis: two copies of ori S located within the repeated sequences flanking the short unique …

Herpes simplex virus type 1 DNA polymerase requires the mammalian chaperone hsp90 for proper localization to the nucleus

AD Burch, SK Weller - Journal of virology, 2005 - Am Soc Microbiol
Many viruses and bacteriophage utilize chaperone systems for DNA replication and viral
morphogenesis. We have previously shown that in the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-…

Herpes simplex virus DNA cleavage and packaging proteins associate with the procapsid prior to its maturation

…, WW Newcomb, M Gao, D Yu, SK Weller… - Journal of …, 2001 - Am Soc Microbiol
Packaging of DNA into preformed capsids is a fundamental early event in the assembly of
herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) virions. Replicated viral DNA genomes, in the form of …
