The N-terminus of varicella-zoster virus glycoprotein B has a functional role in fusion

2020-09-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Abstract.</h4> Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a medically important alphaherpesvirus that induces fusion of the virion envelope and the cell membrane during entry, and between cells to form polykaryocytes within infected tissues during pathogenesis. All members of the Herpesviridae , including VZV, have a conserved core fusion complex composed of glycoproteins, gB, gH and gL. The ectodomain of the primary f...
