Other Information
Dr. Visalli has studied the biology of the
herpesviridae since 1986. His current interests
include understanding the mechanism by which
herpesviruses package their DNA genomes and
the discovery of antivirals that inhibit
the packaging machinery, determining the
function of herpesvirus structural proteins
that modulate "virus-to-cell" and "infected
cell-to-cell fusion", identifying viral
genes involved in virulence, and analysis
of amino acid sequences involved in the targeting
of viral proteins to specific locations.
