Abstract excerpt
Based on sequence variation in the N-terminus of glycoprotein B (gB), human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can be classified into four gBn genotypes, and these genotypes are associated with different clinical outcomes. The distribution of gBn genotypes and the level of gBn DNA load were examined in immunocompromised Chinese patients using real-time quantitative PCR. In addition, the PCR and pp65 antigenemia results were...
