Abstract excerpt

The Spodoptera exigua multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (SeMNPV) Se8 gene was recently shown to encode the viral envelope fusion (F) protein. A 60-kDa C-terminal subunit (F1) of the 76-kDa primary translation product of this gene was found to be the major envelope protein of SeMNPV budded virus (BV) (W. F. J. IJkel, M. Westenberg, R. W. Goldbach, G. W. Blissard, J. M. Vlak, and D. Zuidema, Virology 275:30-41,...
