ABSTRACT:
Complexes between truncated human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein H (CMV gH) polypeptides and escort proteins are disclosed. The escort proteins include soluble fibroblast growth factor receptor polypeptide and a UL115 polypeptide. The escorts shuttle the CMV gH polypeptides to the cell surface. In this way, egress of the polypeptides out of the cell is facilitated, resulting in increased yields and easier purification of the truncated CMV gH.
