Abstract excerpt
We have developed a complementation assay, using transiently transfected COS cells, to facilitate a molecular analysis of the herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoprotein gH. When infected by a gH-null syncytial virus, COS cells expressing wild-type gH generate infectious progeny virions and form a syncytium with neighboring cells. By deletion and point mutagenesis, we have found particular residues in the gH...
