ResumoThe replicative cycle of the fungus herpes-type virus resembles that of herpesviruses of vertebrates. Assembly of the nucleocapsids occurs in the nucleus. During the passage from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, the nucleocapsids are temporarily enveloped by the two nuclear membranes. The two nuclear membranes are degraded in the cytoplasm, and the nucleocapsids then acquire a fibrillar coat. The final envelopment of the coated nucleocapsids occurs at the membrane surfaces of the Golgi complex or cytoplasmic vacuoles. By manipulation of the culture conditions, permissive or nonpermissive states of the fungal cells can be readily achieved.
