FIG. 1.

(A) Schematic diagram of the conserved regions and motifs within HSV-1 Pol. The relative locations of the conserved regions of HSV-1 Pol are shown at the top; regions I to VII and δ region C are represented by open boxes. The conserved exonuclease motifs I, II, and III are indicated with closed boxes. The functional and structural domains (determined by crystal structure analysis [23]) of the HSV-1 Pol are shown below. The N-terminal domain (N domain) is composed of two regions separated by the 3′-to-5′ exonuclease domain (23). (B) Schematic diagram of wild-type and mutant YDL Pol. The BamHI fragment of the wild-type pol from the plasmid pHC629 is shown at the top. The relative location of conserved region VI and the Exo III motif are shown below, with corresponding wild-type and mutant (YDL) amino acid sequences. B, BamHI; M, MstI; N, NotI.
