Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infects a majority of adult humans. During early development and in the immunocompromised adult, CMV causes neurological deficits. We used recombinant murine cytomegalovirus (mCMV) expressing either green fluorescent protein (GFP) or beta-galactosidase under control of human elongation factor 1 promoter or CMV immediate early-1 promoter as reporter genes for infected brain cells.
