The Carboxyl Terminus of the Porcine Circovirus Type 2 Capsid Protein Is Critical to Virus-Like Particle Assembly, Cell Entry, and Propagation
17 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
The carboxyl terminus (CT) of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) capsid protein (Cap) was previously reported to be associated with immunorecognition, alterations of viral titer in swine sera, and pathogenicity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects remain unknown. In this study, roles of the critical residues and motifs of the CT are investigated with respect to virus-like particle (VLP)...
