Open full text 33 citations

Abstract

The gI, gIII, and gIV glycoproteins are major bovine herpesvirus 1 antigens involved in virus neutralization. Results indicate that the gI and gIV glycoproteins were expressed as beta proteins, whereas the gIII glycoprotein was expressed strictly as a gamma protein. These findings suggest that gI and gIV may be superior to gIII as vaccine candidates.
