Purification and properties of the herpes simplex virus type 1 UL8 protein Free

Abstract

A rapid and simple two-step scheme for the purification of herpes simplex virus type 1 UL8 protein from insect cells infected with a recombinant baculovirus has been developed. The scheme involves DEAE–Sepharose and phenyl–Sepharose chromatography and yields approximately 1∙5 mg of protein from 2∙4 × 10 infected cells. The protein remains intact during purification as judged by its reactivity with amino and carboxy termini-specific antisera. Gel filtration chromatography showed that the protein exists as a monomer in solution. No binding of the protein to ssDNA or dsDNA or to a DNA/RNA hybrid could be demonstrated using a gel mobility shift assay.
