A conserved α-herpesvirus protein necessary for axonal localization of viral membrane proteins

Pseudorabies virus, an α-herpesvirus, is capable of infecting the nervous system and spreading between synaptically connected neurons in diverse hosts. At least three viral membrane proteins (gE, gI, and Us9) are necessary for the spread of infection from presynaptic to postsynaptic neurons (anterog...
