Abstract excerpt
The carboxy-terminal 35 amino acids (numbering 199 to 234) of SV40 Vp3 are essential for the nuclear localization of the protein as well as for its interactions with Vp1. Here, we describe studies directed at the further mapping of these two functions. Deletion and site-directed mutants of Vp3 were created within both a eukaryotic transfection and an SP6 transcription vector which encode Vp3. The subcellular...
