title: Sequence and genetic arrangement of the U(S) region of the monkey B virus (cercopithecine herpesvirus 1) genome and comparison with the U(S) regions of other primate herpesviruses.
abstract: The sequence of the unique short (U(S)) region of monkey B virus (BV) was determined. The 13 genes identified are arranged in the same order and orientation as in herpes simplex virus (HSV). These results demonstrate that the BV U(S) region is entirely colinear with that of HSV type 1 (HSV-1), HSV-2, and simian agent 8 virus.
