Abstract excerpt
In a recent report, the neurovirulence of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) was mapped to the ICP34.5 gene (J. Chou, E. R. Kern, R. J. Whitley, and B. Roizman, Science 250:1262-1266, 1990). In this report, specific mutations within ICP34.5 were constructed in HSV-1 strain 17syn+ to determine th...
