ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a process for in vitro diagnosis of an infection by human cytomegaloviruses. The process consists of contacting cells, possibly carrying the infection, with a monoclonal antibody reacting with a polypeptide of molecular weight 68,000, induced by human cytomegalovirus and which possesses a protein-kinase activity. The detection of the reaction is preferably carried out by immunofluorescence.
