Human Cytomegalovirus Primary Infection and Reactivation: Insights From Virion-Carried Molecules

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a ubiquitous beta-herpesvirus, is able to establish lifelong latency after initial infection. Periodical reactivation occurs after immunosuppression, remaining a major cause of death in immunocompromised patients. HCMV has to reach a structural and functional balance wi...
