Abstract excerpt
The 2A proteinase (2A(pro)) of human rhinoviruses (HRVs) initiates proteolytic processing by cleaving between the C-terminus of VP1 and its own N-terminus. It subsequently cleaves the host protein eIF4GI. HRV2 and HRV14 2A(pro) cleave at IITTA *GPSD and DIKSY *GLGP on their respective polyproteins. The HRV2 2A(pro) cleavage site on eIF4GI is TLSTR *GPPR. We show that HRV2 2A(pro) can self-process at the eIF4GI...
