**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein

**Definition:** A pentameric viral protein complex comprised of human cytomegalovirus envelope proteins glycoprotein H, glycoprotein L, protein UL128, protein UL130, and protein UL131A. The envelope pentamer complex binds to neuropilin-2 expressed on host cells and is required for viral entry in epithelial, endothelial and myeloid cells.
