Abstract. Considerable advances have been made in understanding the components of the virion particles of equine herpesvirus type I (EHV 1). Many functions of related glycoproteins in virus pathogenicity and their molecular interactions with the immune system have been revealed. There is a great challenge of understanding their roles and the complexities underlying protective immune mechanism, but the increasingly widespread application of molecular biological approaches is leading to rapid advances of this area.
