Herpes Viral Proteins Manipulating the Peptide Transporter TAP, peptides into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen for class I binding. It is therefore not surprising that TAP is targeted for inactivation by many viruses. Herpesviruses have been very successful in designing various proteins that inactivate TAP. We summarise current knowledge on the class I anti

Human Cytomegalovirus Inhibition of Major Histocompatibility Complex Transcription and Interferon Sy effective at disabling key arms of the host immune response. For example, the herpesviruses establish a persistent infection in human and animal hosts, in part through critical immunoevasive strategies.
