Utilizing a human cytomegalovirus-specific fusion inhibitor and an antiglycoprotein H antibody, we studied the role of virion fusion in interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) induction. Our results indicate that ISG induction does not occur when virion-mediated, post-high-affinity attachment events are inhibited by either reagent. Thus, virion-mediated postattachment events, such as fusion, are required for ISG induction.
