“…Other tegument proteins are also reported to bind capsid proteins, including pUL21 (de Wind et al, 1992;Takakuwa et al, 2001), pUL37 (Lee et al, 2008;Uetz et al, 2006), and pUL47 (Scholtes et al, 2010), but it is not clear that these tegument proteins directly bind to assembled capsids. In fact, multiple lines of evidence argue against a direct interaction between pUL37 and capsids, with pUL37 instead tethered to capsids by pUL36 (Cardone et al, 2012;Daniel et al, 2018;Fuchs et al, 2004;Ko et al, 2010;Sandbaumhuter et al, 2013). Nevertheless, there is indirect evidence of additional capsidtegument interactions, including that virions can form to some degree in the absence of the pUL36-pUL25 interaction (Coller et al, 2007;Schipke et al, 2012), and that the link between pUL36 and the remainder of the tegument is also dispensable for virion formation (Fuchs et al, 2002;Svobodova et al, 2012).…”
