Abstract
⺠We review the published literature on mammalian alphaherpesviruses and microRNAs. ⺠So far, five of these viruses are known to express microRNAs. ⺠The most is known about herpes simplex virus microRNAs. ⺠Some microRNAs are expressed abundantly during latent infections of sensory neurons. ⺠Transfection studies suggest some microRNAs might promote latency. ⺠Overall, we know little about microRNA targets and roles in virus infection.
