Abstract excerpt
Earlier studies have shown that the thymidine kinase-negative baby hamster kidney (BHKTK-) cell lines expressing constitutively the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) glycoprotein D (gD), designated BJ, restrict infection by HSV-1 at the level of virus entry. U10, a HSV-1 mutant not restricted by the BJ cells, carried the substitution of proline for Leu25 in the gD gene, suggesting that gD encodes a specialized...
