General info
Function
Envelope glycoprotein that plays a role in host cell entry, cell to-cell virus transmission, and fusion of infected cells. May be involved in the initial attachment via binding to heparan sulfate together with the gM/gN complex that binds heparin with higher affinity. Interacts with host integrin ITGB1, PDGFRA and EGFR that likely serve as postattachment entry receptors. Also participates in the fusion of viral and cellular membranes leading to virus entry into the host cell. Membrane fusion is mediated by the fusion machinery composed at least of gB and the heterodimer gH/gL.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the herpesviridae glycoprotein B family.
Post-translational modifications
A proteolytic cleavage by host furin generates two subunits that remain linked by disulfide bonds.
Subcellular localisation
Host endosome membrane
