Abstract excerpt
The methionine codon at bovine papillomavirus type 1 nucleotide 3091 was mutated to determine whether it may serve as an initiation codon for an E2 transcriptional repressor protein and to determine the role of the repressor in the biological activities of the virus. A series of transient expression experiments with CV1 cells documented that the mutation reduced expression of repressor activity from the viral...
