Plays an essential role in egress of virus particles from the nucleus, cytoplasmic envelopment and virus-induced cell fusion. Forms a functional protein complex with gK and this interaction is absolutely essential for their coordinate intracellular transport, gK glycosylation, expression on host cell surface, and function. Together, they modulate gB-mediated virus-induced cell fusion and virion egress and therefore actively participate in these processes (By similarity).

♦ Virion . Host cell membrane
♦ Multi-pass membrane protein . Host endosome membrane
♦ Multi-pass membrane protein . Host Golgi apparatus membrane
♦ Multi-pass membrane protein . Host nucleus 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 gK to the cell surface from where it is endocytosed and directed to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) (By similarity). .
