Sequence and transcription of Raji Epstein-Barr virus DNA spanning the B95-8 deletion region.

The DNA sequence of Raji DNA spanning the deletion found in B95-8 cells has been determined. Three open reading frames and a region of homology with the BamHI-H fragment are found within the deletion. The deletion contains a region of 102-bp repeats which is transcribed into an mRNA. The Raji sequence reported here varies slightly from a smaller M-ABA sequence reported previously. This paper completes the sequence of all parts of the wild-type Epstein-Barr virus genome.

Identification of the human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein B gene and induction of neutralizing antibodies via its expression in recombinant vaccinia virus.

A human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoprotein gene with homology to glycoprotein B (gB) of herpes simplex virus and Epstein-Barr virus and gpII of varicella zoster virus has been identified by nucleotide sequencing. The gene has been expressed in recombinant vaccinia virus and the gene product recognized by monoclonal antibodies and human immune sera. Rabbits immunized with the recombinant vaccinia virus produced antibodies that immunoprecipitate gB from HCMV-infected cells and neutralize HCMV infectivity in vitro. These data demonstrate a role for this protein in future HCMV vaccines.
