Honored to announce our partnership with @marcoyannic.bsky.social! Check out the link below 🎉

after Bacmid transfection revealed compensatory second-site mutations, mainly in domain V, reverting this atypical phenotype and rescuing the infection capability. We suggest an important interaction between domains III and V during the fusion process.

In this paper, we characterized four mutations in domain III of HCMV gB, of which one depicted an atypical phenotype in fibroblasts upon long-term culturing. Sequencing of reconstituted viruses at various time points
