HCMV-Encoded NK Modulators: Lessons From in vitro and in vivo Genetic Variation
1 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is under constant selective pressure from the immune system in vivo. Study of HCMV genes that have been lost in the absence of, or genetically altered by, such selection can focus research towards findings of in vivo significance. We have been particularly interested in the most pronounced change in the highly passaged laboratory strains AD169 and Towne – the deletion of 13-15kb of...
