Varicella-Zoster Virus gB and gE Coexpression, but Not gB or gE Alone, Leads to Abundant Fusion and Syncytium Formation Equivalent to Those from gH and gL Coexpression

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is distinguished from herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) by the fact that cell-to-cell fusion and syncytium formation require only gH and gL within a transient-expression system. In the HSV system, four glycoproteins, namely, gH, gL, gB, and gD, are required to induce a...
