Abstract

Cell surface expression of the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) major envelope glycoprotein complex, gp55-116 (gB), was studied by using monoclonal antibodies and an HCMV gp55-116 (gB) recombinant vaccinia virus. HCMV-infected human fibroblasts and recombinant vaccinia virus-infected HeLa cells expresses three electrophoretically distinct proteins of Mr 170,000, 116,000, and 55,000 on their surface. These species have been previously identified within infected cells and purified virions. Two unique neutralizing epitopes were shown to be present on the cell surface gp55-116 (gB). Utilizing HeLa cells infected with the gp55-116 recombinant vaccinia virus as a specific immunosorbent, we have shown that approximately 40 to 70% of the total serum virus-neutralizing activity of a group of individuals with past HCMV infections was directed against this single envelope glycoprotein. The implications of this finding for vaccine development are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
