5091	G gene			46310179	46310180			AAS87364.1	attachment G protein		Virulence factor	As a first step, we evaluated recombinant mutants bearing a deletion of the entire G gene (Delta G) or expressing a G protein lacking its cytoplasmic tail (Gt). Both G mutants replicated as efficiently in vitro as their recombinant parent, but both were nonpathogenic in mice at doses that would otherwise be lethal. We could not detect replication of the Delta G mutant in mice, indicating that its attenuation is based on a severe reduction in the virus load.  [Ref7491:Krempl et al., 2007]		17567693
