Abnormal Forms of the Herpes Simplex Virus Immediate Early Polypeptide Vmw175 Induce the Cellular Stress Response Free

Abstract

Summary

Induction of the major stress response in chick embryo fibroblasts, which follows infection at 38·5 °C with the herpes simplex virus mutant , was investigated. Synthesis of cellular stress proteins occurred only when the mutant form of an immediate early polypeptide, Vmwl75, was overproduced. Infection with mutant inl411, which has an amber (TAG) termination signal inserted between codons 83 and 84 of the gene encoding Vmwl75 and therefore specifies a truncated portion of the polypeptide, failed to stimulate stress protein synthesis. The results suggested that the presence of abnormal forms of Vmwl75 at high concentrations was the signal for induction of the stress response in -infected cells.
