Arterivirus Minor Envelope Proteins Are a Major Determinant of Viral Tropism in Cell Culture
19 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Arteriviruses are enveloped positive-strand RNA viruses for which the attachment proteins and cellular receptors have remained largely controversial. Arterivirus particles contain at least eight envelope proteins, an unusually large number among RNA viruses. These appear to segregate into three groups: major structural components (major glycoprotein GP5 and membrane protein [M]), minor glycoproteins (GP2a, GP3,...
