Combinatorial Loss of the Enzymatic Activities of Viral Uracil-DNA Glycosylase and Viral dUTPase Impairs Murine Gammaherpesvirus Pathogenesis and Leads to Increased Recombination-Based Deletion in the Viral Genome
ABSTRACT Misincorporation of uracil or spontaneous cytidine deamination is a common mutagenic insult to DNA. Herpesviruses encode a viral uracil-DNA glycosylase (vUNG) and a viral dUTPase (vDUT), each with enzymatic and nonenzymatic functions. However, the coordinated roles of these enzymatic activi...
