Actin in Herpesvirus Infection [PDF]
Actin is important for a variety of cellular processes, including uptake of extracellular material and intracellular transport. Several emerging lines of evidence indicate that herpesviruses exploit actin and actin-associated myosin motors for viral entry, intranuclear transport of capsids, and virion egress. The goal of this review is to explore these

Nucleotide sequence of the Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (HHV8).
The genome of the Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV or HHV8) was mapped with cosmid and phage genomic libraries from the BC-1 cell line. Its nucleotide sequence was determined except for a 3-kb region at the right end of the genome that was ...

Characterization of Herpesvirus saimiri and Herpesvirus ateles structural proteins [PDF]
The structural proteins of Herpesvirus saimiri strains 11 and 11 att and of Herpesvirus ateles strains 73 and 810 were characterized by electrophoresis in SDS-polyacrylamide gels. For H. saimiri 21 virus structural proteins could be identified with molecular weights ranging from 28,000 to 210,000 Da. For H. ateles 810 and H.
