Expression of a novel Marek's disease virus type 1 (MDV1)-specific protein p40 in insect cells by a baculovirus vector and in chick embryo fibroblasts infected with MDV1
Abstract
We found that the open reading frame of 1053 nucleotides within the short unique sequence of Marek's disease virus (MDV) type 1 (MDV1) expresses a 40 kDa protein, using a baculovirus vector in insect cells. Mouse antisera against the 40 kDa protein reacted with a 40 kDa protein in MDV1-infected cells. A cross-reactive polypeptide of 37 kDa was also detected in cells infected with herpesvirus of turkey.
