Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: The alphaviral6kgene region encodes the two structural proteins 6K protein and, due to a ribosomal frameshift event, the transframe protein (TF). Here, we characterized the role of the6kproteins in the arthritogenic alphavirus Ross River virus (RRV) in infected cells and in mice, using a novel6kin-frame deletion mutant. Comprehensive microscopic analysis revealed that the6kproteins were predominantly...
