Abstract
This study reports that in bovine herpesvirus 4, glycoprotein B (gB) i s a heterodimer and a major component of the virion, unlike gBs of Eps tein-Barr virus (gp110) and murine gammaherpesvirus 68, two other gamm a-herpesviruses. These are new characteristics with regard to the gene ral features of gB in the Gammaherpes-virinae subfamily.
