Abstract excerpt

Studies of the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoprotein N (gpUL73-gN) showed that genotypic variations exist in different geographic areas, with gN-2 unidentified in Chinese population. The purpose of this study was to determine the HCMV gN variants in the Chinese population of Taiwan. Primers were designed and a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out on the UL73 gene. The PCR products were subjected to...
