Glycoprotein B of Bovine Herpesvirus 4 Is a Major Component of the Virion, Unlike That of Two Other Gammaherpesviruses, Epstein-Barr Virus and Murine Gammaherpesvirus 68
[en] This study reports that in bovine herpesvirus 4, glycoprotein B (gB) is a heterodimer and a major component of the virion, unlike gBs of Epstein-Barr virus (gp110) and murine gammaherpesvirus 68, two other gammaherpesviruses. These are new characteristics with regard to the general features of gB in the Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily.
