Mutations in the polyhedrin NLS affect the assembly and polyhedral shape of alphabaculovirus occlusion bodies.

Abstract excerpt

Alphabaculoviruses produce occlusion bodies (OBs) in the nucleus of the infected cells at the late stage of infection. OBs are mainly composed of a single viral protein called polyhedrin (POLH). Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) POLH possesses a monopartite nuclear localization signal sequence (NLS), KRKK, from 32nd to 35th residues. However, the functions of POLH NLS of other...
