Abstract excerpt
Murine gammaherpesvirus 68 (MHV-68) encodes a set of unique genes, M1, M2, M3 and M4, and eight non-translated tRNA-like molecules that are thought to be important in virus-host interactions and latent infection. The M4 gene is predicted to encode a novel secreted protein. To investigate the role of M4 in viral pathogenesis, a mutant MHV-68 that did not express M4 was constructed and its replication was...
