The accumulation of recent data concerning the reactivity of monoclonal antibodies with particular varicella-zoster virus (VZV) glycoproteins and the mapping of several of their respective genes on the VZV genome has led to a unified nomenclature for the glycoprotein genes of VZV and their mature glycosylated products. Homologs to herpes simplex virus glycoprotein genes are noted.
