Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: The specificity of encapsidation of C-cluster enteroviruses depends on an interaction between capsid proteins and nonstructural protein 2C(ATPase) In particular, residue N252 of poliovirus 2C(ATPase) interacts with VP3 of coxsackievirus A20, in the context of a chimeric virus. Poliovirus 2C(ATPase) has important roles both in RNA replication and encapsidation. In this study, we searched for additional...
