Viruses, 2018 The nuclear phase of herpesvirus replication is regulated through the formation of regulatory multi-component protein complexes. Viral genomic replication is followed by nuclear capsid assembly, DNA encapsidation and nuclear egress.

Highly Basic Clusters in the Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Nuclear Egress Complex Drive Membrane Budding by Inducing Lipid Ordering [PDF]
mBio, 2021 During replication of herpesviruses, capsids escape from the nucleus into the cytoplasm by budding at the inner nuclear membrane. This unusual process is mediated by the viral nuclear egress complex (NEC) that deforms the membrane around the capsid by ...

The universal suppressor mutation restores membrane budding defects in the HSV-1 nuclear egress complex by stabilizing the oligomeric lattice. [PDF]
PLoS PathogensNuclear egress is an essential process in herpesvirus replication whereby nascent capsids translocate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This initial step of nuclear egress-budding at the inner nuclear membrane-is coordinated by the nuclear egress ...

Curr Issues Mol Biol, 2021 During viral replication, herpesviruses utilize a unique strategy, termed nuclear egress, to translocate capsids from the nucleus into the cytoplasm. This initial budding step transfers a newly formed capsid from within the nucleus, too large to fit through nuclear pores, through the inner nuclear membrane to the perinuclear space.

The HSV1 Tail-Anchored Membrane Protein pUL34 Contains a Basic Motif That Supports Active Transport to the Inner Nuclear Membrane Prior to Formation of the Nuclear Egress Complex [PDF]
Viruses, 2021 Herpes simplex virus type 1 nucleocapsids are released from the host nucleus by a budding process through the nuclear envelope called nuclear egress. Two viral proteins, the integral membrane proteins pUL34 and pUL31, form the nuclear egress complex at ...

Exploring the Human Cytomegalovirus Core Nuclear Egress Complex as a Novel Antiviral Target: A New Type of Small Molecule Inhibitors [PDF]
Viruses, 2021 Nuclear egress is an essential process in the replication of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), as it enables the migration of newly formed viral capsids from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.

pUL21 regulation of pUs3 kinase activity influences the nature of nuclear envelope deformation by the HSV-2 nuclear egress complex. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2021 It is well established that the herpesvirus nuclear egress complex (NEC) has an intrinsic ability to deform membranes. During viral infection, the membrane-deformation activity of the NEC must be precisely regulated to ensure efficient nuclear egress of ...

Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus e18 is essential for the formation of normal intranuclear membrane microvesicles and intranuclear envelopment and nuclear egress of nucleocapsids [PDF]
Journal of VirologyAutographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) E18 (AC143, ODV-E18) is an envelope protein common to both occlusion-derived virions (ODVs) and budded virions (BVs).

HSV-1 exploits host heterochromatin for nuclear egress. [PDF]
J Cell Biol, 2023 Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) progeny form in the nucleus and exit to successfully infect other cells. Newly formed capsids navigate complex chromatin architecture to reach the inner nuclear membrane (INM) and egress. Here, we demonstrate by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) that HSV-1 capsids traverse heterochromatin associated with trimethylation

Membrane deformation and scission by the HSV-1 nuclear egress complex [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 The nuclear egress complex (NEC) of herpesviruses such as HSV-1 is essential for the exit of nascent capsids from the cell nucleus. The NEC drives nuclear envelope vesiculation in cells, but the precise budding mechanism and the potential involvement of cellular proteins are unclear.
