Abstract excerpt
Glycoprotein H (gH) homologues are found in all members of the herpes virus family, and gH is one of the virion envelope glycoproteins that is essential for virus entry. In this study, a recombinant soluble form of Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) gH, in which the ectodomain is fused to the Fc-binding region of IgG, has been generated. This was expressed in mammalian cells together with gL and the resulting...
