Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Information on strain types of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) isolates from Saudi Arabian patients is lacking. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 80 clinical isolates of HCMV from Saudi Arabian patients were analyzed by PCR amplification of three regions (DNA polymerase, glycoprotein B, and glycoprotein H) of the virus genome. The resultant amplicons (2.0-2.7 kb) were further studied by restriction fragment length...
