Active transport by microtubule motors has a plethora of crucial roles in eukaryotic cells.
Organelles often move bidirectionally, employing both plus-end and minus-end directed …

Microtubule-mediated transport of macromolecules and organelles (also known as" cargo")
is essential for cells to function. Deficiencies in cytoplasmic transport are frequently …

After fusion of the viral envelope with the plasma membrane, herpes simplex virus type 1
(HSV1) capsids are transported along microtubules (MTs) from the cell periphery to the …

The actin and microtubule cytoskeleton play important roles in the life cycle of every virus.
During attachment, internalization, endocytosis, nuclear targeting, transcription, replication …

It is now clear that transport on microtubules by dynein and kinesin family motors has an
important if not critical role in the replication and spread of many different viruses …

Many viruses depend on host microtubule motors to reach their destined intracellular
location. Viral particles of neurotropic alphaherpesviruses such as herpes simplex virus 1 …

Herpes virions are complex particles that consist of more than 30 different virally encoded
proteins. The molecular basis of how this complicated structure is assembled is only recently …

Powerful transneuronal tracing technologies exploit the ability of some neurotropic viruses to
travel across neuronal pathways and to function as self-amplifying markers. Two main …

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) induces profound changes in infected cell morphology,
including a large cytoplasmic inclusion that corresponds to the virion assembly complex …

After infection of skin or mucosa, herpes simplex virus enters the sensory nerve endings and
is conveyed by retrograde axonal transport to the dorsal root ganglion, where the virus …
