Abstract excerpt
To investigate the importance of the IE1 p72 regulatory protein during human cytomegalovirus replication, a recombinant virus unable to synthesize IE1 p72 was constructed. The Towne strain mutant CR208 lacked exon 4 of the major immediate-early gene and was isolated and complemented in an IE1-exp...
