Abstract excerpt
We previously constructed seven mutations in the gene for glycoprotein D (gD) of herpes simplex virus type 1 in which the codon for one of the cysteine residues was replaced by a serine codon. Each of the mutant genes was cloned into a eucaryotic expression vector, and the proteins were transiently expressed in mammalian cells. We found that alteration of any of the first six cysteine residues had profound...
