This paper presents the entire nucleotide sequence of the thymidine Kinase (TK) gene of canine herpesvirus (CHV). The gene was located within a 2.1 kbp EcoRV fragment by Southern-blot hybridization with a probe derived from the known feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1) TK gene. An open reading frame (...
