We investigated whether SMARCB1 was recruited to these sites during HCMV infection by assessing intracellular localization of SMARCB1 in mock and HCMV-infected fibroblast cells at immediate –early (5–12 hpi), early (24 hpi) and late (48 and 72 hpi) time points of infection. This evidence concerns the gene SMARCB1 and cytomegalovirus infection.
