Widespread activation of antisense transcription of the host genome during herpes simplex virus 1 infection
Abstract
Herpesviruses can infect a wide range of animal species. Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is one of the eight herpesviruses that can infect humans and is prevalent worldwide. Herpesviruses have evolved multiple ways to adapt the infected cells to their needs, but knowledge about these transcriptional and post-transcriptional modifications is sparse.Here, we show that HSV-1 induces the expression of about 1000 antisense transcripts from the human...
