Expression of the murine cytomegalovirus glycoprotein H by recombinant vaccinia virus [PDF]
, 1994 The sequence of the gene encoding glycoprotein H (gH) of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) strain Smith was determined and compared with the sequence of the gH of MCMV strain K181. Transcriptional analysis showed that gH is encoded by a large mRNA of 5.0 kb,
