MHC Class I-like Gene in Squirrel Monkey Cytomegalovirus and the Evolution of the Virus

2025-04-11

Abstract excerpt

Homology searches between viral and human peptides revealed that the S9 protein of squirrel monkey cytomegalovirus ( Saimiriine herpesvirus 4 strain [SBHV4]) shares 60.6% amino acid identity across 86.3% of full-length human HLA-A. This represents the most extensive and highest degree of homology reported to date between a viral protein and an MHC class I molecule. Phylogenetic analysis of MHC class I-like DNA s...
