The herpes simplex virus tegument protein pUL21 is required for viral genome retention within capsids.
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 understood quality-control mechanism that preferentially selec...
