Abstract excerpt
By a heterotypic cross between influenza viruses A/WSN (H1N1) and B/Yamagata/1/73, we obtained a mutant of B/Yamagata (AWBY-234), which expressed a greatly truncated NS1 protein with molecular weight of 13,500. Direct sequencing of the NS gene of the mutant revealed a deletion of a single uridine base at the position 310, 311, or 312 of the plus sense RNA, giving rise to a new stop codon at the position 314-316....
