Abstract excerpt
The coronavirus mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 (MHV-A59) encodes a 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro) that is proposed to be responsible for the majority of the processing events that take place within the replicase polyproteins pp1a and pp1ab. In this study we demonstrate that the Q939/S940 peptide bond, located between the polymerase and Zn-finger regions of pp1ab (the POL/Zn site), is processed by the 3CLpro,...
