Abstract excerpt
Syncytial mutations of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) strains ANG, ANG path, HFEM, tsB5 and HSZP cause extensive cell fusion and were mapped to the cytoplasmic domain of glycoprotein B (gB), within the syn 3 locus. These strains are so far the only ones which show the phenotype 'fusion from without' (FFWO): 60 min after infection with high m.o.i., cells in a tissue culture are fused without transcription and...
