Introduction: Current trends in herpesvirus DNA research (a review)

  • Chapter
Herpesvirus DNA

Part of the book series: Developments in Molecular Virology ((DMVI,volume 1))

  • 59 Accesses

Abstract

During the last ten years, marked progress has been made in the study of herpesviruses, particularly in elucidating the properties of the DNA genomes of various members of the Herpesviridae. New techniques for cleavage of DNA, cloning short fragments in bacterial plasmids and for DNA sequencing have considerably advanced our knowledge of the organization of the herpesvirus DNA genome which carries about 100 genes. The aim of the present review is not to cover all the publications in the field, but to indicate current trends in research on herpesvirus DNA and the direction in which present research is heading.
