Physical interaction between envelope glycoproteins E and M of pseudorabies virus and the major tegument protein UL49.

Envelope glycoprotein M (gM) and the complex formed by glycoproteins E (gE) and I (gI) are involved in the secondary envelopment of pseudorabies virus (PrV) particles in the cytoplasm of infected cells. In the absence of the gE-gI complex and gM, envelopment is blocked and capsids surrounded by tegument proteins accumulate in the cytoplas...More
