Family Herpesviridae and neuroinfections: current status and research in progress [PDF]
This article addresses the relationship between human herpesviruses (HHVs) and neuroinfections. Alphaherpesviruses, betaherpesviruses and gammaherpesviruses are neurotropic viruses that establish latency and exhibit reactivation capacity. Encephalitis and meningitis are common in cases of HHV.

ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Herpesviridae 2021 [PDF]
Members of the family Herpesviridae have enveloped, spherical virions with characteristic complex structures consisting of symmetrical and non-symmetrical components. The linear, double-stranded DNA genomes of 125–241 kbp contain 70–170 genes, of which 43 have been inherited from an ancestral herpesvirus.

Toll-like receptor-mediated innate immunity against herpesviridae infection: a current perspective on viral infection signaling pathways [PDF]
Background In the past decades, researchers have demonstrated the critical role of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in the innate immune system. They recognize viral components and trigger immune signal cascades to subsequently promote the activation of the ...

Herpesviridae and novel inhibitors [PDF]
Herpesviridae comprises a large family of double-stranded DNA viruses that infect both animals and humans. Eight herpseviruses are known to infect humans: herpes simplex virus type-1 and -2, varicella zoster virus, human cytomegalovirus, Epstein–Barr virus, human herpesvirus 6 type-A and -B, human herpesvirus type-7 and -8 or Kaposi's sarcoma virus ...

Genomewide Function Conservation and Phylogeny in the Herpesviridae [PDF]
The Herpesviridae are a large group of well-characterized double-stranded DNA viruses for which many complete genome sequences have been determined. We have extracted protein sequences from all predicted open reading frames of 19 herpesvirus genomes.

Welcome to Herpesviridae -- a new premier virology journal [PDF]
Editorial The ability to establish lifelong latency after primary infection is a common denominator of large DNA viruses of the Herpesviridae family. Herpes viruses are endemic to humans worldwide and contribute to the meta-genome of 70-100% of the world’s population.
