title: [Herpesviridae: classification and structure in 1991].
abstract: In 1981, herpesviruses were classified by the International Committee of Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV, 1) inside the herpesviridae family. Progress in biotechnology and molecular biology during the last 10 yr, has permitted the characterization of new viruses and genomic structures. The objective of this paper is to collect the data found in the literature since 1981, to actualize the description of herpesviridae family.
