Fig. 7

In HSV-1-infected cells, ICP27 interacts with CPSF and induces the assembly of an aberrant 3′ processing complex. At viral PASs or host PASs that have GC-rich upstream sequences (UPS), ICP27 binds to these UPS sequences and promotes recruitment of CPSF, thereby activating mRNA 3′ processing. The transition of ICP27 between the CPSF-bound and UPS RNA-bound states is illustrated by a dotted line.
