The nucleotide sequence of the glycoprotein gB gene of infectious laryngotracheitis virus: analysis and evolutionary relationship to the homologous gene from other herpesviruses.

Abstract excerpt

A 3698 bp region of the genome of infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) was sequenced and found to contain the entire glycoprotein gB gene and the C-terminal region of a gene homologous to the ICP 18.5 protein gene of herpes simplex virus type 1. The ILTV gB gene encoded a protein with an Mr of 100K possessing all the characteristics of a transmembrane glycoprotein. Alignment of the ILTV gB sequence with...
