Background
Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) gE is a glycoprotein encoded by the VZV genome, essential for viral replication and pathogenesis. It is primarily involved in viral assembly, maturation, and egress from infected cells. Additionally, gE facilitates viral spread by promoting cell-to-cell fusion, enabling VZV to evade host immune responses and establish persistent infection. The interaction of gE with other viral proteins, such as gI and gB, plays a crucial role in VZV virulence and pathogenicity. Furthermore, gE has been identified as a target for antiviral therapies and vaccine development against VZV infection, including chickenpox and shingles. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying gE function provides valuable insights into VZV pathogenesis and offers opportunities for the development of novel therapeutic strategies to combat VZV-related diseases.
