“…Other components of ND10s include the Sp100, Daxx, Mre 11, ATM, ATRX, p53, and others. ICP0 disrupts the ND10s by causing degradation of the different isoforms of PML, Sp100, and potentially of other proteins ( Figure 1 A) [ 34 , 59 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 ] Notably, several components of the ND10 bodies are interferon inducible genes, which underscores the synergy between gene silencing mechanisms and innate immunity in suppressing HSV-1 gene expression. ICP0-null viruses or E3 ubiquitin ligase mutants have viral DNA entrapped in PML-NBs at low MOI and display reduced transactivation activity and ability to block antiviral responses [ 34 , 64 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 ].…”
