Glycoprotein M is important for the efficient incorporation of glycoprotein H–L into herpes simplex virus type 1 particles
20 Oct 2011
Abstract excerpt
Herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoprotein M (gM) is a type III membrane protein conserved throughout the family Herpesviridae. However, despite this conservation, gM is classed as a non-essential protein in most alphaherpesviruses. Previous data have suggested that gM is involved in secondary envelopment, although how gM functions in this process is unknown. Using transfection-based assays, we have previously...
