General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Transcriptional activator of immediate-early (IE) gene products (alpha genes). Acts as a key activator of lytic infection by initiating the lytic program through the assembly of the transcriptional regulatory VP16-induced complex composed of VP16 and two cellular factors, HCFC1 and POU2F 1. VP16-induced complex represents a regulatory switch: when it is on, it promotes IE-gene expression and thus lytic infection, and when it is off, it limits IE-gene transcription favoring latent infection. May play a role in the aggregation of tegument proteins around nucleocapsids during virus morphogenesis Potential. |
| Subunit structure | Interacts with VP22. Interacts with gH (via C-terminus). Interacts with the virion host shutoff protein (vhs). Interacts with VP11/12. Associates with the VP16-induced complex; binding to host HCFC1 activates VP16 for association with the octamer motif-binding host protein POU2F1, to form a multiprotein-DNA complex responsible for activating transcription of the viral immediate early genes. Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.12 |
| Subcellular location | Virion tegument By similarity. Host nucleus By similarity. |
| Domain | The transcriptional activation region seems to target many proteins of the RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the herpesviridae tegument protein VP16 protein family. |
