IQGAP1 and infection: We did not observe a significant difference in viral presence at the end of 6 months post-infection based on in situ hybridization results (MmuPV1-infected Iqgap1+/+ vs. MmuPV1-infected Iqgap1−/− = 90% vs. 88%, counted by the percentage of mice positive for MmuPV1 E6/E7 transcript), indicating that IQGAP1 did not affect viral clearance.
