The <i>Lymantria dispar</i> Nucleopolyhedrovirus Enhancins Are Components of Occlusion-Derived Virus
28 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
Enhancins are metalloproteinases, first identified in granuloviruses, that can enhance nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) potency. We had previously identified two enhancin genes (E1 and E2) in the Lymantria dispar multinucleocapsid NPV (LdMNPV) and showed that both were functional. For this study, we have extended our analysis of LdMNPV enhancin genes through an immunocytochemical analysis of E1 and E2 expression and...
