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 ...

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.

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.

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.

The family Herpesviridae has members that infect a wide range of vertebrates including mammals, birds, and reptiles. The family name is derived from the Greek herpein “to creep,” referring to the latent, recurring infections typical of this group of viruses. Most herpesviruses are very host specific.

Potential Zoonotic Infections Transmitted by Free-Ranging Macaques in Human-Monkey Conflict Areas in Thailand. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Nonhuman primates (NHPs) can transmit zoonotic diseases to humans because of their close genetic relationship, facilitating the cross‐species transmission of certain pathogens. In Thailand, Macaca is the most common NHP genus and their inhabits area are in close proximity of human, particularly in urban and suburban areas, where ...

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.
