Glycoprotein that probably modulates membrane fusion events during secondary envelopment of cytoplasmic capsids that bud into specific trans-Golgi network (TGN)-derived membranes. Also plays a role, together with gB, in virus-induced cell-to-cell fusion (syncytia formation). Seems to block fusion of virions with infected-cell membranes.

♦ Host cell membrane
♦ Multi-pass membrane protein. Host endosome membrane
♦ Multi-pass membrane protein . Host Golgi apparatus membrane
♦ Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=During virion morphogenesis, this protein probably accumulates in the endosomes and trans-Golgi where secondary envelopment occurs. It is probably transported with UL20 to the cell surface from where it is endocytosed and directed to the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Cell surface expression of gK is required for virus-induced cell-to-cell fusion. Likely not present in extracellular virions.

Protein couldn't be modeled using I-Tasser and Raptor X because of length constraints of the software.
