Novel Alpha‐, Beta‐, and Gammaherpesviruses in Neotropical Carnivores of Brazil
The knowledge regarding infectious agents affecting wildlife is crucial for species’ conservation. We hypothesized that herpesviruses are present in wild Neotropical carnivores. Herein, we used DNA polymerase and glycoprotein B broad‐spectrum PCRs to molecularly survey the presence of herpesviruses in spleen and/or lung samples of 53 wild Neotropical ...

RNA interference inhibits herpes simplex virus type 1 isolated from saliva samples and mucocutaneous lesions [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of RNA interference to inhibit herpes simplexvirus type-1 replication in vitro. For herpes simplex virus type-1 gene silencing, three dif-ferent small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting the herpes simplex ...

Recurring eczema herpeticum complicated by herpetic meningitis and staphylococcal bacteremia
Background: Eczema Herpeticum (EH) is a dermatological emergency that may progress to viral meningitis in patients not treated urgently. We present a case of recurrent EH in a young, immunocompetent patient complicated by progressing herpetic meningitis ...

Complete genome sequence of cercopithecine herpesvirus 2 (SA8) and comparison with other simplexviruses [PDF]
We have obtained the complete sequence of the herpesvirus simian agent 8 (SA8; cercopithecine herpesvirus 2) a baboon simplexvirus closely related to the monkey B virus and herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2. The genome of SA8 is 150,715 bp long, with an

The extreme C terminus of herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase is crucial for functional interaction with processivity factor UL42 and for viral replication [PDF]
The herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase is composed of two subunits, a large catalytic subunit (Pol) and a smaller subunit (UL42) that increases the processivity of the holoenzyme.
