[Structure of over lapping region of ICP18.5 and gB genes of type 1 bovine herpesvirus strain TK-A].

Nucleotide sequence of DNA fragment coding 3'-terminal of ICO 18.5 gene that overlaps the regulatory region and 5'-terminal of open reading frame of gB gene of bovine herpesvirus (BHV-1, subtype 1.3), strain TK-A, was determined. Comparative analysis of the sequence with the corresponding DNA regions of BHV-1, subtype 1.1, equine herpesviruses of the first and fourth types, and porcine pseudorabies virus was performed.
