The IE86 protein of human cytomegalovirus is an 'immediate early' viral protein that drives cells into S phase, but blocks cell division. In the March 5 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Yoon-Jae Song and Mark Stinski describe a microarray analysis of the effects of IE86 expression on the human transcriptome (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2002, 99:2836-2841).
