RESUMO

A guanidinium chloride extract of [3H]glucosamine- and [35S]methionine-labeled virions plus dense bodies of human cytomegalovirus (Towne) was separated by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the eluate revealed the major peak to be a glycoprotein with a relative mass of 64,000. This glycoprotein (HCMVgp64) was characterized by amino acid analysis and a high-pressure liquid chromatographic map of its tryptic peptides.
