Abstract excerpt
Epstein-Barr virus IL-10 (ebvIL-10) mimics the biological functions of cellular IL-10 including a number of immunoinhibitory activities on diverse immune cells. Characterization of ebvIL-10 and several mutants, expressed in Escherichia coli, by gel filtration chromatography and mass spectrometry revealed a +1 frameshift upon ebvIL-10 expression. The frameshift is caused by the rare AGG codon at ebvIL-10 Arg159,...
