Structure and Replication of Herpes Virus Model
Product Code : JC-BE-6221
The Structure and Replication of Herpes Virus Model (SKU JC-BE-6221) is a herpesvirus structure model that shows the layered build of these enveloped double-stranded DNA viruses: the icosahedral capsid, the tegument and the lipid envelope with viral glycoproteins. It follows glycoprotein-mediated attachment, envelope fusion, replication in the nucleus and the latent state, with reactivation by stress, fever, immunosuppression or UV exposure. It relates these to cold sores, genital herpes, chickenpox and shingles. JaincoLab manufactures it in Ambala, India.
Specifications
The model is a virology teaching model of the herpesviruses, covering the structural layers, cell entry, nuclear replication, latency, reactivation and clinical relevance; its dimensions, material and base are not in the current product data and are confirmed on the quotation.

Uses of the herpesvirus structure model
Lecturers use the model to explain why herpesvirus infections last for life and recur, by showing the latent state and the triggers that end it.
- Showing the capsid, tegument and glycoprotein envelope
- Explaining attachment and envelope fusion
- Following replication in the host cell nucleus
- Explaining latency and reactivation triggers
- Linking HSV-1, HSV-2 and varicella-zoster virus with their diseases
Scope of supply and ordering
Each unit is a single Structure and Replication of Herpes Virus Model depicting herpesvirus structure, replication and latency, supplied for classroom and laboratory teaching. Construction details not listed above, and any accessories, spares and quantities, are confirmed on the quotation.

Frequently asked questions
Which structural layers are shown?
The icosahedral capsid with the DNA core, the tegument protein layer and the lipid envelope carrying viral glycoproteins.
Does the model explain latency?
Yes. It shows the viral genome persisting in a largely silent state and reactivating after stress, fever, immunosuppression or UV exposure.
