The amino terminus of Epstein-Barr virus glycoprotein gH is important for fusion with epithelial and B cells.

Journal of virology - 1 Oct 2005

Omerović Jasmina, Lev Lori, Longnecker Richard

Abstract excerpt

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects B lymphocytes and epithelial cells. While the glycoproteins required for entry into these two cell types differ, the gH/gL glycoprotein complex is essential for entry into both epithelial and B cells. Analysis of gH protein sequences from three gammaherpesviruses (EBV, marmoset, and rhesus) revealed a potential coiled-coil domain in the N terminus. Four leucines located in this...
