The cellular paraspeckle component SFPQ associates with the viral processivity factor ORF59 during lytic replication of Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV).

ABSTRACT: Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) relies on many cellular proteins to complete replication and generate new virions. Paraspeckle nuclear bodies consisting of core ribonucleoproteins splicing factor proline/glutamine-rich (SFPQ), Non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein (NONO), and paraspeckle protein component 1 (PSPC1) along with the long non-coding RNA NEAT1, form a complex that has been speculated to play an important role in viral replication. Paraspeckle bodies are multifunctional and involved in various processes including gene expression, mRNA splicing, and anti-viral defenses. To better understand the role of SFPQ during KSHV replication, we performed SFPQ immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry from KSHV-infected cells. Proteomic analysis showed tha
