摘要：
The thymidine kinase (TK) of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) contains three regions of homology to other ATP utilizing enzymes. We have altered one region of the protein, which seems to play an important role in phosphorylating substrates by site-directed mutagenesis. When the aspartate 162 was changed to asparagine, the enzyme lost its activity. To identify the inactive protein, expressed by a vaccinia vector in eukaryotic cells, a monospecific antiserum against a bacterial tryptophan E-HSV-1 TK fusion protein was made. These results support the suggestion that aspartate 162 is essential for the enzymatic activity.
