Abstract: During virion morphogenesis herpes simplex virus nucleocapsids transit from the nucleoplasm to the cytoplasm, through a process called nuclear egress, where the final stages of virion assembly occur. Coupled to nuclear egress is a poorly… read more here.

Abstract: The membrane deformation activity of the herpesvirus nuclear egress complex (NEC) allows capsids to transit through both nuclear membranes into the cytoplasm. NEC activity must be precisely controlled during viral infection, and yet our knowledge… read more here.
