Inhibition of Virion Maturation by Simultaneous Deletion of Glycoproteins E, I, and M of Pseudorabies Virus

Abstract excerpt

Glycoprotein M (gM), the product of the UL10 gene of pseudorabies virus (PrV), is one of the few nonessential glycoproteins conserved throughout the Herpesviridae. In contrast to wild-type PrV strains, the UL10 gene product of the attenuated PrV vaccine strain Bartha (PrV-Ba) is not modified by N-glycans due to a mutation in the DNA sequence encoding the consensus N-glycosylation motif. To assay function of the...
