Figure 2.
Phylogenetic profile of homologous proteins families (HPF) known to be involved in structural functions (capsid, tegument, virus assembly). The presence of the family in any genome is indicated by 1 and the absence by 0. Alpha, Alphaherpesviruses; Beta, Betaherpesviruses; and Gamma, Gammaherpesviruses. The HPF numbers are indicated and relate directly to accompanying data available athttp://www.biochem.ucl.ac.uk/bsm/virus_database. HPF 1* is indicated twice because it represents a shared domain present in both the major and minor capsid proteins of all herpesviruses.
