Structure of Epstein-Barr virus tegument protein complex BBRF2-BSRF1 reveals its potential role in viral envelopment

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) tegument proteins BBRF2 and BSRF1 have been suggested to form a hetero-complex. Here, He et al. provide the crystal structures of BBRF2 alone and in complex with BSRF1 and suggest that the complex tethers EBV nucleocapsids to the Golgi membrane, facilitating secondary envelo...
