Biochemical properties of the P42 protein encoded by RNA segment 6 of influenza C virus.

Abstract excerpt

P42, encoded by a colinear transcript of Influenza C virus RNA segment 6 (M gene), is an integral membrane protein which is cleaved by signal peptidase to generate M1' and CM2 composed of N-terminal 259 amino acids and C-terminal 115 amino acids, respectively. Herein, the biochemical features of P42 were investigated. N-glycosylated form of P42, designated P44, forms disulphide-linked dimers and tetramers. P44 is...
