MCM7 and infection: Nevertheless, this RNAi-mediated reduction in MCM7 during infection with HCMV once again led to a robust increase in cellular DNA synthesis at 96 h post-infection (figure 8A) which was not due to differences in input genome and also led to concomitant increases in IE72 expression at 24 h post-infection (figure 8B and statistical analysis shown in figure S1A) and pp28 expression at 96 h post-infection (figure 8C).
