Infected cell protein 34.5

Infected cell protein 34.5 (ICP-34.5, ICP34.5, or GADD34) is a protein expressed by the ɣ34.5 gene in viruses such as herpes simplex virus; it blocks a cellular stress response to viral infection. It shares the C-terminal regulatory domain (InterPro: IPR019523) with protein phosphatase 1 subunit 15A/. The ICP34.5 deletion is useful for the construction of Oncolytic herpes viruses, as cancer cells do not restrict replication as strongly.
