products description :
Description: Purified recombinant HSV1 gD protein. Biological Significance: Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2) are two members of the herpes virus family, Herpesviridae, that infect humans. Both HSV-1 (which produces cold sores) and HSV-2 (which produces genital herpes) are ubiquitous and contagious. They can be spread when an infected person is producing and shedding the virus. Glycoprotein D binds to at least one of herpesvirus entry mediator, nectin-1 and 3-O sulfated heparan sulfate receptors. These interactions bring the membrane surfaces into mutual proximity and allow for other glycoproteins embedded in the viral envelope to interact with other cell surface molecules.
