Abstract excerpt
CM2 is a single-pass transmembrane protein located in the viral envelope and is essential for the growth of influenza C virus. We previously reported that CM2 is involved in viral genome packaging and uncoating. We also demonstrated that alanine substitutions at residues 47-48, 67-69, 73-75, 85-87 and 113-115 in the cytoplasmic domain of CM2 significantly reduced its expression levels. Herein, we analysed whether...
