However, methods that can comprehensively detect and quantify these proteins are still limited, particularly for viruses with large protein coding capacity. Here, we design and experimentally validate a mass spectrometry-based Targeted herpesviRUS proTEin Detection (TRUSTED) assay for monitoring human viruses representing the three Herpesviridae subfamilies{\textemdash}herpes simplex virus type 1, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), and Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. We demonstrate assay applicability for (1) capturing the temporal cascades of viral replication, (2) detecting proteins throughout a range of virus concentrations and in in~vivo models of infection, (3) assessing the effects of clinical therapeutic agents and sirtuin-modulating compounds, (4) studies using different laboratory and clinical viral strains, and (5) discovering a role for carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 in supporting HCMV replication. }, year = {2022}, journal = {Cell Reports}, volume = {39}, pages = {110810}, issn = {2211-1247}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2211124722005812}, doi = {10.1016/j.celrep.2022.110810}, language = {eng}, }
