The varicella-zoster virus (VZV) genome contains about 70 open reading frames (ORF). ORF 68 codes for glycoprotein gE, formerly called gpl, which is the predominant VZV glycoprotein; gE is a typical type 1 transmembrane protein with 623 amino acids. Recently, a variant virus was discovered which has a mutation in gE codon 150; this mutation converts an aspartic acid into an asparagine residue.
水痘带状疱疹病毒(VZV)基因组包含约70个开放阅读框(ORF)。ORF 68编码糖蛋白gE,以前称为gpl,它是主要的VZV糖蛋白;gE是一种典型的1型跨膜蛋白,有623个氨基酸。最近,发现了一种变异病毒,其gE密码子150发生了突变;这种突变将一个天冬氨酸残基转变为一个天冬酰胺残基。
