Abstract excerpt
The transneuronal labeling properties of three genetically engineered forms of the Bartha strain of pseudorabies virus (PRV) were studied in the ocular sympathetic pathway of rats. Bartha PRV mutants in which expression of the viral glycoprotein gI (homologous to gE of herpes simplex virus type 1, HSV-1) was restored (Bartha gI+) or which express a wildtype form of glycoprotein gIII (homologous to gC of HSV-1 and...
