Structure of the herpes simplex virus 1 capsid with associated tegument protein complexes

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Since Hippocrates first described the cutaneous spreading of herpes simplex lesions, many other diseases—chickenpox, infectious mononucleosis, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and Kaposi’s sarcoma—have been found to be associated with the nine known human herpesviruses. Among them, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1, causes cold sores), type 2 (HSV-2, causes genital herpes), and varicella-zoster virus (causes chickenpox and shingles)—which all belong to the α-herpesvirus subfamily—can establish lifelong … Show more

“…The structure of Myrna shows how common the T=16 capsid architecture is, with examples of viruses found in all domains of life that have a similar structure, for example the human virus HSV-1 [32]. This is the first time it has been described in the Actinobacteria, and suggests that this capsid architecture is adaptable to a number of different hosts and environments to encapsulate large genomes.…”

“…Myrna shows T=16 capsid organization, with a minor capsid protein that sits in hexavalent positions. Following the new framework it is a Tt (4,0) = 64/3, similar to HSV-1 [32]. The interior capsid diameter is 81.1 nm.…”

“…The precise site of pUL36 addition to the capsids, in the nucleus or in the cytoplasm, has been the subject of much debate, with the balance of evidence suggesting that it binds capsids in the cytoplasm 20,21 . This is at odds with structural data that show two copies of pUL36 intimately associated with pUL17 and pUL25 to form a 5-helix bundle in the CATC 19 .…”

“…S2). In recent high-resolution single particle reconstructions of capsids within purified HSV-1 virions, the pentaskelion structure can be clearly seen above the penton vertices and has been attributed to the proteins pUL17, pUL25 and pUL36 16,19 .…”
