The Role of Marek’s Disease Virus UL12 and UL29 in DNA Recombination and the Virus Lifecycle
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) is an oncogenic alphaherpesvirus that infects chickens and integrates its genome into the telomeres of latently infected cells. MDV encodes two proteins, UL12 and UL29 (ICP8), that are conserved among herpesviruses and could facilitate virus integration. The orthologues o...
