Springer - Latency Strategies of Herpesviruses Book

Explore the complex relationship between viruses and hosts in Latency Strategies of Herpesviruses. Published by Springer, this volume provides a detailed overview of the latency strategies developed during the estimated 200,000 year-long coevolution of Alpha-, Beta-, and Gammaherpesvirinae and their host species. While the text focuses mainly on herpesviruses that infect humans, it also covers relevant cases involving animal infections. Readers will find in-depth information regarding the molecular mechanisms that regulate latent promoters of herpesvirus genomes. Additionally, the book examines the signals and molecular pathways that result in the reactivation of latent viral genomes. This resource is designed for those seeking a deep understanding of how these viruses maintain dormancy and trigger reactivation within a host.
