Variability of gB and gH genes of human herpesvirus‐6 among clinical specimens
6 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
The isolates of human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6), a betaherpesvirus closely related to human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), are classified as either variants A (HHV-6A) or B (HHV-6B) but their intravariant variability has not been studied extensively so far. The full-length genes of envelope glycoproteins gB and gH from 40 distinct HHV-6-DNA-positive specimens and 11 laboratory strains were amplified using PCR, and their...
