Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Justine R Bersonda's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying the establishment and maintenance of KSHV latency, a process critical for the long-term survival of certain viruses. Her work investigates the role of cellular proteins in viral persistence and pathogenesis. In recent publications, Bersonda has explored the cooperation between the mitochondrial ubiquitin ligase MARCHF5 and the anti-apoptotic protein MCL1 in KSHV-transformed primary effusion lymphoma cell lines. This research contributes to understanding how these viruses manipulate host cell processes to evade immune detection and promote cell survival. Bersonda has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Mark Manzano, Karl W. Boehme, Prasanth Viswanathan, and Daniel Dunham, on shared publications.
