Analysis of synthetic peptides from heptad-repeat domains of herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoproteins H and B
7 Apr 2006
Abstract excerpt
Human herpesviruses enter cells by fusion of their own membrane with a cellular membrane through the concerted action of multiple viral proteins and cellular receptors. Two conserved viral glycoproteins, gB and gH, are required for herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-mediated membrane fusion, but little is known of how these proteins cooperate during entry. Both glycoproteins were shown to contain heptad repeat...
