Functional Analysis of the Human Cytomegalovirus US28 Gene by Insertion Mutagenesis with the Green Fluorescent Protein Gene
1 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
The protein encoded by the US28 gene of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has homology to G protein-coupled receptors (GCR). Previous studies demonstrated that recombinant US28 protein can bind the beta class of chemokines (K. Neote, D. DiGregorio, J. Y. Mak, R. Horuk, and T. J. Schall, Cell 72:415-425, 1993) and induce a rise in intracellular calcium after the binding of chemokines (J. L. Gao and P. M. Murphy, J....
