Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the leading cause of congenital viral infection and
mental retardation. HCMV infection, while causing asymptomatic infections in most …

The past few years have brought substantial progress toward understanding how human
cytomegalovirus (HCMV) enters the remarkably wide spectrum of cell types and tissues that …

A new method of quantifying correlations in symbolic sequences is applied to DNA
nucleotides. Spectral density measurements of individual base positions demonstrate the …

The genome of the Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV or HHV8) was mapped
with cosmid and phage genomic libraries from the BC-1 cell line. Its nucleotide sequence …

This paper is about the taxonomy and genomics of herpesviruses. Each theme is presented
as a digest of current information flanked by commentaries on past activities and future …

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a ubiquitous herpesvirus, causes a lifelong subclinical
infection in healthy adults but leads to significant morbidity and mortality in neonates and …

The genetic content of wild-type human cytomegalovirus was investigated by sequencing
the 235 645 bp genome of a low passage strain (Merlin). Substantial regions of the genome …

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a member of the herpesvirus family, is a large complex
enveloped virus composed of both viral and cellular gene products. While the sequence of …

This article presents a short discussion of the development of the human genome program
in the United States, a summary of the current status of the organization and administration …

Herpesviruses comprise an abundant, widely distributed group of large DNA viruses of
humans and other vertebrates, and overall are among the most extensively studied large …
