Fig. 5.

Transport of capsids and tegument proteins in axons of sensory neurons during viral egress. Correlative motion analysis of de novo assembled viral particles during egress is shown. Images were captured between 7 and 15 hpi in axons of dissociated DRG sensory neurons. Frames of alternating mRFP1 (R) and GFP (G) emissions are shown for each virus from left to right. All viruses express mRFP1-VP26 (capsid) and the indicated tegument protein fused to GFP. Frames from the recordings are oriented with the neuronal cell body above the field of view (i.e., anterograde transport is from top to bottom). All frames are 2.1 μm × 15.2 μm.
