Proteolytic processing of foamy virus Gag and Pol proteins.

Current topics in microbiology and immunology - 1 Jan 2003

Flügel R M, Pfrepper K I

Abstract excerpt

The foamy viral proteases (FV PRs) are set apart from other retroviral processing enzymes by unique features. The first remarkable property is that FV PRs are enzymatically active as high-molecular-mass Pro-Pol proteins. Hence there exist multiple forms of active FV PRs that likely contribute to cleavage site specificity. A FV PR of low molecular size is not detectable in purified virions, in contrast to PRs of...
