Abstract excerpt
ts1 is a highly neuropathogenic and lymphocytopathic mutant of Moloney murine leukemia virus TB (MoMuLV-TB). We previously reported that the primary neuropathogenic determinant of ts1 maps to a single amino acid substitution, Val-25-->Ile, in precursor envelope protein gPr80env. This Val-25-->Ile...
