Role of the Transmembrane Domains of prM and E Proteins in the Formation of Yellow Fever Virus Envelope
26 Dec 2002
Abstract excerpt
Flavivirus envelope proteins have been shown to play a major role in virus assembly. These proteins are anchored into cellular and viral membranes by their C-terminal domain. These domains are composed of two hydrophobic stretches separated by a short hydrophilic segment containing at least one charged residue. We investigated the role of the transmembrane domains of prM and E in the envelope formation of the...
