The host nuclear envelope is a membrane system which surrounds the host nucleoplasm of eukaryotic cells. It is composed of the nuclear lamina, nuclear pore complexes and two nuclear membranes. The space between the two membranes is called the host nuclear intermembrane space. Note: This location is defined for viral proteins that appear in the Nuclear Envelope of infected host cells
The membrane surrounding the host nucleus. This term is used when it is not known if the protein is found in or associated with the inner or outer host nuclear membrane. Note: This location is defined for viral proteins that appear in the Nuclear Membrane of infected host cells
The inner membrane surrounding the host nucleus is the membrane which separates the host nuclear matrix from the host intermembrane space. Note: This location is defined for viral proteins that appear in the Nuclear Inner Membrane of infected host cells
