Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The authors of "Role of Heat Shock Proteins (HSP70 and HSP90) in Viral Infection" have written a thorough and easy to follow review. The review has a sufficient introduction and also concisely introduces the two major heat shock proteins reviewed here. The review holds great merit in explaining how viruses exploit the functionality of these proteins and are able to infect the cells. The tables are informative and easy to follow.

In my opinion, the review is suitable for publication in the present form with some minor spell check. One point to improve the review could be to add a diagrammatic summary in the conclusion section of the review.  

Author Response

Thank you very much for the positive reviews of our manuscript. The manuscript was re-edited and spelling corrections were made according to the Reviewer's instructions.

Reviewer 2 Report

The manuscript "Role of Heat Shock Proteins (HSP70 and HSP90) in Viral Infec-2 tion" is an interesting review paper that collates evidence of HSPs role during viral assembly and infection. The manuscript is well written and the reading is pleasant. References are updated. Authors discuss in detail also the role of the two most studied HSP (70 and 90) in specific virus pathogenesis. The manuscript offers tables with summarized evidence of HSPs involvement per each virus. I endorse the publication of the manuscript.
