This virus evades immune recognition by secreting ICP-47 which interferes with the function of MHC-I. This virus' glycoprotein C binds to heparan sulfate and its glycoprotein D binds to cellular receptors.
This virus contains several CTCF insulator sites in its genome, which prevents heterochromatin spreading along it. This virus evades immune recognition by secreting ICP-47 which interferes with the function of MHC-I. This virus' glycoprotein C binds to heparan sulfate and its glycoprotein D binds to cellular receptors. Whitlows often caused by this virus, which when in circular form expresses the Latency-Associated Transcript. This virus encodes an enzyme that phosphorylated naked thymine, and that enzyme specifically acts on drugs like valacyclovir and acyclovir, causing chain termination. In addition to causing conjunctivitis and aseptic meningitis, this virus usually lies latent in the trigeminal or sacral gangi and causes outbreaks of red lesions in response to stress. For 10 points, name this DNA virus that causes both genital lesions and cold sores.
