Abstract excerpt
The herpesviruses of humans and animals are large, enveloped virions with complex genetic organization that cause either lytic or latent infections. Of the many glycoproteins encoded by these viruses and incorporated into the virion envelope, glycoprotein B (gB) is the most highly conserved. Homologues of gB are encoded by the genomes of all the herpesviruses. gB is required for infectivity and functions in...
