FIG. 1.

Schematic representation of EBV gp42. (A) Representation of wild-type gp42 showing the relative locations of known functional domains. The transmembrane domain is predicted to span residues 9 to 22 and is shown as a gray box. The site of gp42 cleavage is between residues 40 and 42 and is indicated by a black bar. The two gH/gL binding regions, spanning residues 47 to 61 and 67 to 87, are indicted with hatched boxes, flanking the five-residue linker. The C-terminal C-type lectin domain, including the hydrophobic pocket and HLA class II-binding region, is indicated by cross-hatched boxes. The putative dimerization region is indicated by a dotted box. (B) Amino acid sequence of gp42 peptide spanning residues 36 to 81 of the gp42 protein.
