General description
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous human pathogen that belongs to the herpes adenovirus family. The viral life cycle takes approximately seventy two hours. After the initial fusion of the viral envelope with the plasma membrane of the cell, the encapisidated virus particle is released into the cytoplasm and within minutes, transits to the nucleus. Via active transport through the nuclear pore, the capsid gains entry and viral DNA is deposited. Viral gene expression then occurs in a temporally regulated manner, first with expression of the immediate early genes, followed by the early genes, then, after viral replication has commenced, the late genes. All of the immediate early proteins have been shown to be transactivators, with IE1-72 and IE2-86 being the most well characterized. These genes regulate the expression of factors required for virus replication.
Specificity
Reacts with an immediate early non-structural antigen of 68-72 kDa. This antigen can be detected 1 hour after infection exhibiting an intranuclear staining pattern. This staining reaches a peak at 10-12 hours. This antigen persists and can be detected throughout the complete CMV infection cycle.
Immunogen
Affinity purified immediate early antigen from MRC-5 cells infected with CMV AD169 (ATCC).

Myeloid cells are important sites of lytic and latent infection by human cytomegalovirus (CMV). We previously showed that only a small subset of myeloid cells differentiated from CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells is permissive to CMV replication, underscoring the heterogeneous nature

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection often leads to systemic disease in immunodeficient patients and congenitally infected children. Despite its clinical significance, the exact mechanisms contributing to HCMV pathogenesis and clinical outcomes have yet to be determined. One of such mechanisms involves

The plasma membrane (PM) must be overcome by viruses during entry and release. Furthermore, the PM represents the cellular communication compartment and the immune system interface. Hence, viruses have evolved sophisticated strategies to remodel the PM, for instance to avoid

Despite displaying broad tropism in vivo, human cytomegalovirus (CMV) contained in bodily fluids replicates inefficiently in most cultured cell types except fibroblasts. As propagation in fibroblasts leads to the accumulation of genomic changes, a number of strains were generated by
