Studies on intracellular processing of the capsid protein of human astrovirus serotype 1 in infected cells
1 Jul 2002
Abstract excerpt
Astroviruses are non-enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses. Their structural (capsid) protein is processed extracellularly into several smaller fragments which are found on the mature viral particle. In addition, intracellular cleavage of the capsid protein has been proposed. However, analysis of capsid protein processing has been hampered by the lack of antibodies to regions near the N and C termini of the...
