Single-cell RNA-sequencing of herpes simplex virus 1-infected cells connects NRF2 activation to an antiviral program

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) induces major reprogramming of the host cell environment. Here, the authors profile the transcriptomes of individual HSV-1-infected human fibroblasts and provide evidence of an antiviral program mediated by the activation of the host transcription factor NRF2.
