Abstract
The alphaherpesvirus glycoproteins gE and gI form a hetero-oligomeric complex involved in cell-to-cell transmission. The gI-deficient recombinant feline herpesvirus (FHV), FHVDeltagI-LZ, produces plaques that are only 15% the size of those of wild-type FHV. Here, we have complemented FHVDeltagI-LZ allotopically by expressing intact gI and C-terminally truncated gI derivatives from
