2. Herpes simplex 1 and 2 (To “The sound of silence” Simon and Garfunkle) Hello, herpes, our old friend Will be with us to the end. ‘ Cause the virus softly creeping Left its genes while we were sleeping Not integrated into our genome, It will roam that episome. The DNA of herpes.

15. REPLICATION The genome structure of herpesviruses: (A) Alphaherpesvirus genomes comprise two regions designated long (L) and short (S). Terminal repeat (TR) and internal repeat (IR) sequences may bracket unique sequences (U L , U S ) of both L and S or only S. Repeat sequences are shown as boxes and are encoded as indicated by the direction of the arrows. Repeat sequences allow the DNA they bracket to invert relative to the rest of the genome such that where both U L and U S are bracketed by repeat sequences, four isomers are made and packaged in equimolar amounts into virions. Where only S is bracketed by repeat sequences, two equimolar isomers are made. (B) The genome of equine herpesvirus 2, a betaherpesvirus, contains terminal direct repeat structures. (C) The genome of bovine herpesvirus 4, a gammaherpesvirus, contains multiple direct terminal repeat sequences (small boxes) in a nonequal, variable number of copies.
17. REPLICATION Diagram representing transcription, translation, and DNA replication of a typical herpesvirus. Transcription and posttranscriptional processing occur in the nucleus, translation in the cytoplasm, and some of the and proteins are involved in further transcription and some proteins in DNA replication.

31. Intranasal vs intramuscular vaccines Route of Inoculation Advantages Disadvantages Intra nasal Stimulates mucosal and systemic immunity. Stimulates interferon. Less affected by maternal antibody. Immunity not as long-lasting as IM. Serum antibody titres lower. Difficult to administer. Intra muscular Longer lasting, higher levels of immunity. Susceptible to maternal antibody.
