Extensive Attenuation of Rabies Virus by Simultaneously Modifying the Dynein Light Chain Binding Site in the P Protein and Replacing Arg333 in the G Protein
1 Dec 2001
Abstract excerpt
Rabies virus (RV) is a highly neurotropic virus that migrates from the portal of entry to the central nervous system (CNS). The cytoplasmic dynein light chain (LC8), which is involved in a variety of intracellular motile events, was shown to interact with RV phosphoprotein (P). In order to determine the functional significance of this interaction, P residues 143 to 149 or 139 to 149 encompassing a conserved...
