Abstract excerpt
The pathogenesis of three equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) recombinants was assessed in a CBA mouse model. Sequences encoding the majority of glycoproteins I (gI) and E (gE) were deleted from the pathogenic EHV-1 strain RacL11 (L11deltagIdeltagE), and sequences comprising the 3859 bp deletion within the strain KyA U(S) segment, which includes genes 73 (gI), 74 (gE), and 75 (putative 10 kDa protein 75), were...
