Abstract
For some viruses, long-term persistence in the host depends on the establishment of latency, a reversibly nonproductive state of infection. The alphaherpesviruses provide a dramatic illustration. Herpes simplex virus and varicella-zoster virus establish latency in sensory neurons, persisting inKeywords
