The Human Herpesvirus 6 U100 Gene Product Is the Third Component of the gH-gL Glycoprotein Complex on the Viral Envelope

28 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

The human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) variant A U100 gene encodes the third component of the glycoprotein H (gH)-glycoprotein L (gL)-containing complex. Glycosidase digestion analysis showed that the U100 gene products are glycoproteins consisting of an 80-kDa protein with complex N-linked oligosaccharides and a 74-kDa protein with immature, high-mannose N-linked oligosaccharides. Based on these characteristics, we...
