Human cytomegalovirus US2 destabilizes major histocompatibility complex class I heavy chains

1 Apr 1997

Abstract excerpt

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection causes down-regulation of major histocompatibility complex class I heavy chains. We determined previously that there are two HCMV loci which encode functions responsible for that phenotype and that US11 is one of these loci (T. R. Jones, L. A. Hanson, L. Sun, J. S. Slater, R. M. Stenberg, and A. E. Campbell, J. Virol. 69:4830-4841, 1995). Through the construction and...
