Sequence variability of the alpha-chemokine UL146 from clinical strains of human cytomegalovirus.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Dec 2004

Abstract excerpt

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous pathogen that infects a variety of cell types in vivo. A region (referred to as UL/b') present in the Toledo strain of HCMV and low passage clinical isolates contains 22 additional genes, which are absent in the highly passaged laboratory strain AD169. One of these genes, UL146, encodes an alpha-chemokine. PCR amplification and sequencing of this gene from serial...
