Abstract Background During primary infection of its human host Herpes Simplex Virus Type-1 HSV-1 establishes latency in neurons where the viral genome is maintained in a circular form associated with nucleosomes in a chromatin configration. During latency most viral genes are silenced although the molecular mechanisms responsible for this are unclear. We hypothesized that neuronal factors repress HSV-1 gene expression during latency.
