title: [Cloning and sequencing of genes coding the glycoproteins of antigens A and B of oncogenic strain JM of Marek disease virus (MDV)].
abstract: The genes encoding the precursors of secretory glycoprotein gp57-65 (A antigen) and glycoprotein complex gp100, gp60, gp48 (B antigen) of virulent strain JM of Marek's disease virus (MDV) have been cloned using PCR of viral DNA. Nucleotide sequences of both genes have been determined and amino acid sequence of the precursor peptides predicted, and compared with the corresponding sequences of other MDV strains. The results will be used for developing methods for the diagnosis of Marek's disease and vaccination against it.
